This sandwich is so refreshing and delicious. The tomatoes are juicy and ripe, the mozzarella is creamy and melted perfectly, and the basil adds a fresh flavor. I will definitely be making this again.

I love this sandwich! It is so easy to make and it is always a hit with my family and friends. I usually make it with sourdough bread, but it is also good with other types of bread.
