Ingredients

4 thick slices of focaccia or 8 slices of bread, to serve

2 tbsp basil pesto (ensure vegetarian, if needed)

2 tsp extra virgin olive oil

handful of rocket

2 x 125g balls of mozzarella sliced (ensure vegetarian, if needed)

2 large ripe tomatoes sliced

small handful of basil leaves

1⁄2 small red onion sliced (optional)

2 tsp thick balsamic vinegar

Instructions

Step 1
If using focaccia, cut the slices across the middle so you have a total of eight slices. Spread 1/4 tbsp pesto over four of the focaccia or bread slices, and drizzle each of the remaining four slices with 1/2 tsp olive oil.
Step 2
Divide the rocket, mozzarella, tomatoes, basil leaves and red onion slices over the pesto-topped focaccia or bread. Drizzle 1/4 tsp balsamic vinegar over each of the remaining slices. Sandwich the slices together, wrap up for a picnic or serve straightaway. Best eaten on the day they’re made.
