CAPRESE SANDWHICH

Ingredients

​1 baguette (16 ounces)

1 tablespoon thick balsamic vinegar 

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 ½ cups baby arugula

1 mozzarella ball (8 ounces)

2 medium ripe tomatoes, sliced into ¼-inch thick rounds

Flaky sea salt or kosher salt

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Slice the bread in half lengthwise, then stack it back together and slice it down the middle to form two large sandwiches, or again to make 4 small. Place the sliced bread on a baking sheet with the cut sides facing up. Bake for 5 minutes, or until warmed through and turning lightly golden around the edges.

2.  To assemble the sandwiches, lightly drizzle balsamic and olive oil over half of the cut sides of bread. Layer some arugula on top, then weigh it down with rounds of mozzarella. Top with the sliced tomato, then sprinkle the tomato lightly with flaky salt.

3. Enjoy!
