    🛒 Ingredients

    👩🏻‍🍳 Instructions

    • Spread 1 tablespoon of pesto on one side of each bread slice.

    • Layer mozzarella, tomato slices, a pinch of salt and pepper, and fresh basil (if using) on two of the bread slices.

    • Top with the remaining slices, pesto side down, to form sandwiches.

    • Brush the outside of each sandwich lightly with olive oil or butter.

    • Grill on a panini press or skillet over medium heat for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden and the cheese is melted.

    • Slice in half and serve warm.
