The Caprese sandwich is a classic Italian favorite that celebrates the flavors of fresh tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and basil. Start with a crusty baguette or ciabatta and spread some pesto on one side. Layer on thick slices of ripe tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, and basil leaves. Drizzle with a balsamic glaze or reduction for a tangy and sweet finish. This sandwich is simple yet bursting with flavors. It's a great option for a light lunch or a picnic in the park.
