Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices multigrain bread
- 2–3 slices mozzarella (or provolone)
- 2–3 slices tomato
- 1 small handful arugula (or mixed greens)
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise or softened butter (for spreading)
- Pinch of salt and black pepper (optional)
- Ketchup, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Prep the bread: Spread mayonnaise (or butter) evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
- Assemble: Place one slice bread (spread-side down) in a cold skillet. Layer mozzarella, tomato slices, arugula, then more mozzarella. Top with the second slice of bread (spread-side up).

- Serve: Rest 1 minute, slice in half, and serve with ketchup (or tomato soup).
Notes
- For extra crispiness, press the sandwich gently while cooking.
- Substitute arugula with spinach or mixed greens if preferred.
- Use a panini press for even grilling.
