For some reason, when the family wants something "light", this is what we go with. This sandwich always impresses me because of it's simplicity...just a few ingredients for such an amazing flavor. The hubs and I call them "Tomato Mozzarella Sandwiches" but the oldest chic can never seem to remember that so she started calling them "That Sandwich I Like". She has called them that so many times that now I know exactly what she's talking about.
Because there are only a few ingredients, it is REALLY important to use the best ingredients. This is the time to bust out the special olive oil and the aged balsamic. They make a huge difference in flavor!

Tomato Mozzarella Sandwiches
1 Vine Ripe Tomato (sliced thick)
1 Vine Ripe Tomato (sliced thick)
2 thick slices buffalo mozzarella
2 slices Ciabatta
A few fresh basil leaves
Aged Balsamic Vinegar
Extra Virgin Olive Oil (La Espanola is our fave)
Salt and Pepper
Drizzle both slices of ciabatta with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and chiffonade the basil. Layer the sandwich...Mozzarella on bottom, then basil, tomatoes and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with second slice of ciabatta.
I think the sandwich is best when it's had a bit to sit and let all the flavors meld together. By the time the chic eats this for lunch tomorrow, it should be perfect!

I would LOVE that sandwich. My post today has an empty space for my sandwich to be made tomorrow morning. It is kind of sad.
