Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Sun-dried tomatoes — If using sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, make sure to drain them well before chopping.
  • Mozzarella cheese — Opt for fresh mozzarella for the best flavor and texture. If unavailable, you can use regular mozzarella cheese slices.

Tips & Tricks

  • For added flavor, you can lightly toast the bread slices before assembling the sandwiches.
  • Experiment with different types of bread, such as whole wheat or ciabatta, to add variety to the dish.
  • Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze or a sprinkle of dried oregano for an extra burst of flavor.
