Tomato, Basil, Mozzarella Sandwiches

I love beef.  I'm definitely a meat eater.  Steak, Prime Rib, Hamburgers...you name it, I love it.  So you probably wondering why I'm posting this sandwich.  I'm also enjoy just plain good tasting food, and this falls into that category.  Do this though, try it before you pass judgement.  If you really need meat, I have also eaten this with Prosciutto, which was still very good!

If you are looking for a light lunch that tastes great, look no further.  It's super easy to make, the kids love it.

So what do you need?  It's really simple

Basil, Tomato, Ciabatta Bread, Mozzarella, and some greens.  We use either spinach or spring mix.  I'm sure there is a bunch of different ways to make this, but here's mine.

In a bowl I put the sliced tomatoes and add olive oil, balsamic Vinegar, salt and pepper.  I usually do this first and let it marinate.

Then I slice the mozzarella ball.

Here's the lettuce.

Usually I buy the Ciabatta loaf and cook in the oven when making sandwiches for the whole family.  I also buy the little rolls for when I'm taking this to work.

Here's the sandwich with olive oil on the bread.  The spring mix on the bottom, Mozzarella, Tomato, Basil, and then what's left in the bowl from the tomatoes I pour on top.

Lunch is ready!

It takes longer to cook the bread than it does to make this for the entire family.  Enjoy!
