FRESH MOZZARELLA BASIL SANDWICHES

Fresh Mozzarella Basil Sandwiches image

We love this fast, fresh sandwich, especially when it's too warm to turn on the oven to make dinner. I like to pair it with a fruity white wine and pasta salad or fancy potato chips. We often add avocado to the sandwiches and in the summer, use fresh Walla Walla onions. -Stacey Johnson, Tacoma, Washington
