Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup refrigerated pesto
  • 8 slices multigrain bread
  • 12 oz sliced roasted skinless turkey breast or lower-sodium deli turkey
  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, torn into small pieces
  • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. Spread 1/2 tablespoon pesto on 1 side of each slice of bread. Top 4 of the slices evenly with turkey and cheese. Top with remaining bread slices, pesto-side down. Brush the outer sides of the sandwiches evenly with oil.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 sandwiches; cook until golden brown and the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining 2 sandwiches.
