Equipment

  • oven
  • blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 loaf Rosemary Focaccia Bread or store-bought focaccia
  • Sundried Tomato Pesto or store-bought pesto
  • 16 ounces shaved deli turkey
  • 12 slices fresh mozzarella cheese
  • 12 slices ripe tomatoes plus more as needed
  • 2 cups Arugula or mixed greens plus more as needed

Instructions
 

  • If making from scratch, bake the focaccia as directed. Otherwise, store-bought focaccia works wonderfully.
  • Make the sun-dried tomato pesto as directed. You can make it up to up to 1 week in advance.
  • Cut the bread into 6 equal sized portions, then split each piece in half to make sandwiches.
  • Assemble: Spread a generous layer of the prepared pesto on the bread, then top with arugula, tomatoes, mozzarella and the shaved deli turkey. Cover with the top half of the bread, and enjoy!

Notes

The pesto can be prepared up to 1 week in advance. If baking the bread at home, it will last 2-3 days ahead and stored at room temperature. Assemble just before eating for best results. If storing, wrap tightly and refrigerate up to 1 day. Let sit at room temp 15 minutes before serving to soften the bread.
