Ingredients

2 slices of bread, variety of your choice
2 slices of Swiss cheese
1 tbsp Valicenti Arugula & Pistachio Pesto (more to taste)
2 slices of heirloom tomato
2-3 tbsp butter, at room temperature and softened

Method

Place a frying pan over medium heat, then melt a tablespoon of butter over the surface, making sure it’s well covered. Next, lay a slice of bread on the pan.

​

Layer with slices of cheese, then spread pesto, and add slices of tomato. Have the second slice of bread ready with a spread of butter over one surface.

 

Check for when the bottom side is golden brown, then add second slice to the sandwich, butter side up, and flip the whole.

​

Once the second surface is golden brown, remove from heat and serve.

​

Serves 1.

(Optional, serve along with a cup of tomato soup, garnished with a basil leaf)
