Inspired by my many trips abroad, this tomato mozzarella caprese panini combines classic Italian ingredients in a crisp, melty sandwich. In just 15 minutes, you can enjoy the flavors of the Mediterranean right at home.

Instructions
- Bread: If using focaccia, cut it hamburger style to make a bottom and top of your sandwich. Spread butter or mayonnaise onto the outside pieces.
- Assemble: Build two sandwiches by layering pesto, mozzarella, tomato, spinach, more mozzarella, and more pesto.
- Cook: Cook over medium heat in a large skillet or panini press until the outsides are golden brown and the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Storage: This sandwich is best enjoyed right away. Otherwise, you can store it for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat it on the stove until warmed through.
