What else would you serve with tomato basil soup? I used the recipe for highmade pesto, bought jarred roasted peppers (diced and drained), slices of sourdough, smoked provolone (grated) and slices of fresh mozzarella. Assemble and brush bread with garlic oil and grill on the Panini press until toasty and oozing. This is grilled cheese for the adults.

I notice the grated cheese rather than thin cheese slices on the bread. Makes for better & more consistent melting in the sandwich as it grills in the pan?
To be honest, the store had wedges of smoked provolone. I do think grated cheese melts better. Did you try it?
