Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 pound fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1/3 cup pesto
2 hero rolls, each 9 to 10 inches long
1/2 head butter lettuce
1 large green bell pepper, cut into rings

Steps:

Toss mozzarella and pesto in a medium bowl until cheese is completely coated. Split rolls in half horizontally. Cover bottom half of each roll with cheese cubes. Top with lettuce and green pepper; return tops of rolls. Cut sandwiches into smaller pieces, if desired, and serve.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the sandwich will be. Use fresh, ripe tomatoes, creamy mozzarella cheese, and flavorful pesto.
Choose the right bread. A good sandwich starts with great bread. Look for a bread that is sturdy enough to hold up to the fillings, but not so thick that it overpowers them. Ciabatta, focaccia, and sourdough are all good choices.
Don't be afraid to experiment. There are endless possibilities when it comes to making a mozzarella sandwich. Try different combinations of ingredients until you find one that you love. You can add grilled vegetables, roasted peppers, or even fresh fruit to your sandwich.
Make it a meal. A mozzarella sandwich can be a satisfying meal on its own, but it can also be served with a side salad or soup. If you're serving it as a main course, consider adding a protein source, such as grilled chicken or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

The mozzarella sandwich is a classic for a reason. It's simple, delicious, and versatile. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch or a satisfying dinner, a mozzarella sandwich is always a good choice. So next time you're in the mood for a sandwich, give one of these recipes a try.
