So I've been living on
Pinterest pretty much since I was sent an invite to check it out. There are so many ideas I've pinned, but haven't tried. I decided to end that streak today. Why you ask? Because in the grand scheme of my life, I'm procrastinating doing what I should do - i.e. cleaning off what The Husband calls "Aimee Central" from the dining room table.
I decided to start small today and figured I'd try the mozzarella, pesto, and tomato grilled cheese sandwich I pinned to my food and drink board.

| The necessary ingredients |
You'll need:
- slices of mozzarella cheese
- 2 slices of bread (I know I have white bread there, rather than some good bread - it was on sale, so sue me!)
- sliced Roma tomatoes
- pesto - you can buy it or make it
 |
| Drizzle a little olive oil in the pan |
 |
| Spread one side of the bread with pesto, add the tomato slices (sprinkle with a little salt and pepper), and the cheese. Add the other slice of bread and set the stove to medium heat. |
 |
| If you don't have a panini maker, you can simply use another pan to flatten the 2 slices of bread. Flip the sandwich and add the other pan to flatten. |
 |
| Ok, so it came out a little crispier than I'd planned, but for my 1st attempt at "gourmet" sandwich, overall, not bad. It was tasty and the sea salt and cracked pepper kettle chips went well. |
Looks yummy!
