Turkey Pesto Sandwich

INGREDIENTS

2 slices crusty sourdough bread
2-3 tablespoons basil pesto (homemade or store-bought)
4-6 ounces sliced deli turkey breast
2 slices provolone cheese
1 Roma tomato, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh baby spinach leaves
1 tablespoon softened butter

DIRECTIONS:

Spread one side of each slice of bread with the softened butter. On the other side of one slice, spread a generous amount of pesto, covering the entire surface.

Layer the turkey slices on top of the pesto. Add the provolone cheese slices on top of the turkey.

Arrange the tomato slices over the cheese. Top with a handful of fresh baby spinach leaves.

Spread more pesto on the other slice of bread, on the unbuttered side. Place this slice pesto-side down on top of the spinach to complete the sandwich.

Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwich in the pan, butter side down. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bread is toasted and golden brown.

Carefully flip the sandwich over and continue grilling the other side for another 2-3 minutes, pressing down lightly with a spatula, until the cheese is melted and the second side is toasted.

Remove the sandwich from the heat. Let cool for 1 minute, then slice in half diagonally and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious turkey pesto sandwich!
