Sourdough Bread
Fresh Mozzarella (sliced thick)
Pesto
Tomatoes
Arugula Lettuce
Balsamic* (see below)
Butter one side of two slices of sourdough. Place one of the slices of bread in a fry pan over medium heat. Layer with sliced mozzarella, then a thin spread of pesto, then sliced tomatoes (I also like to salt and pepper my tomatoes). Put on the top slice of bread and grill both sides until toasty. Remove to a plate and open the sandwich to add the arugula tossed in some balsamic. Put sandwich back together and enjoy!
*I highly recommend investing in a good bottle of balsamic. My husband got me this stuff for Christmas and it is amazing the difference between this and the cheap stuff. This was almost like a balsamic reduction, it comes out more thick like a syrup. And the taste is incredible!

Mmmm...that looks delicious.
Oh my goodness, I love Margherita pizza and this looks wonderful! Sourdough bread is the only way we ever make grilled cheese as well. This is a MUST try....now I just have to figure out a way to justify eating the carbs. :)
Yum! I know what I'm having for lunch tomorrow. And I totally agree with you about the balsamic. I bought a delicious bottle at the cafe inside Tai Pan after debating the price and I am so glad I did. It doesn't even compare to the cheap stuff. Thanks for the new recipe to use it!
I agree about the Balsamic. The good stuff makes all the difference in the world. there is a place in SLC called Millcreek oil and vinegar. You can just go taste the olive oils and vinegar. I never knew there were so many different kinds. I would highly recommend it if you are in the area. You will never buy the cheap stuff again.
