What can go wrong with a crusty italian bread toasted sandwich with oozing warm bocconcini and pesto? Not much, apart from wanting more!
At a Sydney cafe, I had this delicious treat for breakfast after a big night. It could certainly be eaten as a snack or lunch also.
Ingredients:
- 2 slices thick italian crusty bread
- 2 bocconcini pieces, sliced thin – what is bocconcini? wikipedia
- 1 tbs pesto
- salt
- pepper
- 1 tbs mayo
- 1 tsp butter or margarine
- 1/2 tomato thinly sliced
Instructions:
- Butter the bread with butter or margaine (optional).
- On one side of the butter, spread the pesto generously. The other side spread mayonnaise.
- Layer the tomato against the mayonaise and top with bocconcini.
- Toast in a sandwich press to your liking. Best results will have the bocconcini oozing out.

bocconcini is a cheese similar to mozzarella. It does not have any animal rennet in it, which makes it suitable for vegetarians. I’ll post a link to wikipedia in the main article with more information!
