If you haven’t tried this tomato basil bread yet, you’re really missing out. What are you waiting for? Of course I just made it on Saturday night, and so I was dying to make a sandwich with it for lunch on Sunday. It snowed all day on Sunday, and while Nate headed out to shovel for the second time, I started these sandwiches. To take it to the next level, I even broke out the Panini press! Oh yeah 😉
I added a little mozzarella to Nate’s sandwich (we had a tiny bit in the fridge that I just wanted to use up), but of course I loved it without . There was so much flavor, I wouldn’t even know where to begin explaining it. Crisp salty bacon, creamy avocado, oven roasted turkey, and fresh, fluffy tomato and basil bread. It was a perfect little lunch on a snowy day. I also brough one for lunch today – minus the bacon and Panini pressed part. Looking forward to lunch in a few minutes…
