vegetarianRecipe: Italian Sandwich

Red, white, and green always make me think of Italy, and mozzarella cheese, tomatoes, and basil are a classic combination.

Yield 4 sandwiches
Time 5 minutes
Tools
  • Knife
  • Paper towels
Ingredients
  • 4 pieces of focaccia or Italian bread
  • 4 t olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 pound fresh mozzarella
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced

Directions Split the bread in half lengthwise and drizzle each piece with olive oil. Cut the garlic in half and rub the cut edge on the bread.
