Mmmm... mozzarella! Try this grilled cheese sandwich with the Italian twist! If you haven't tried it before, pesto is one of the best condiments to use on a hot sandwich. Instead of cooking the sandwiches in a skillet, you can use your panini press just as easily. This recipe is from a Canadian cheese magazine. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
4 panini bread
6 1/2 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced
1/4 cup fresh parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup pesto sauce
2 grilled bell peppers, sliced (from the jar or homemade)
Directions:
1. Slice paninis in half. Spread pesto onto each half.
2. Evenly distribute both cheeses and peppers on four bottom halves and top with four top halves.
3. Heat skillet over medium-low heat.
4. Cook sandwiches approximately 5 minutes on each side while applying pressure to flatten them.
5. Sandwich is ready when bread is browned and cheese is melted.
