This recipe has all the flavor of a caprese salad in sandwich form. Yum! I didn't have any french bread, so I used whole grain. I used just a spray of vinegar and next time I would brush the oil on the bread and then press the sandwich into the parmesan cheese. Can't wait to try again using french bread!
