This time of year, Romas are the best fresh tomato option. Roasting concentrates their flavor, making them an intense foil for fresh mozzarella. A glass of Sauvignon Blanc or crisp Viognier blends in beautifully. Ingredients:
6 roma tomatoes, halved lengthwise |
8 slices olive bread, lightly toasted |
8 slices cooked turkey (white meat) |
8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced |
about 12 fresh arugula leaves, rinsed and dried |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Set tomato halves cut side up in an oiled baking pan and spread about 1/2 tsp. pesto over each. Bake until tomato halves are browned on top and slightly shriveled, about 1 1/2 hours.
2. Spread pesto generously over 4 slices of bread. Top with turkey, hot tomatoes, mozzarella, arugula leaves, and remaining slices of bread. Serve with remaining pesto if you like.
3. Note: Nutritional analysis is per sandwich.
