Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 8 slices white bread
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced
  • ½ cup pesto sauce*
Instructions
  1. Spread butter on one side of two slices of bread. Flip the slices of bread over and spread 1 tablespoon of pesto sauce on the other side of each of the slices of bread. Place ¼ of the mozzarella on one slice of bread and place the other slice on bread on top of the mozzarella, pesto side down. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  2. Place parmesan cheese in a plate. Press one side of a sandwich, butter side down, onto the parmesan cheese. Flip the sandwich over and press the other side of the sandwich into the parmesan cheese, pressing so that the bread is coated in parmesan cheese. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place one sandwich on the skillet and cook until one side is golden. Flip the sandwich and cook until the other side is golden. This will take about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches.
  4. Slice the sandwiches in half, diagonally. Serve hot.
