The Vibrant Ingredient That Gives Tomato Sandwiches A Fancy Touch

A tomato sandwich is typically fashioned with just a few basic ingredients – tomato, mayonnaise, and salt and pepper — but you can jazz it up with fresh pesto.

Pesto is a pulverized blend of fresh basil, olive oil, garlic, pine nuts, and Parmesan cheese with full-bodied flavor that adds vibrancy to the bright taste of a tomato sandwich.

Simply spread a generous dollop of pesto across bread along with mayonnaise and tomatoes. The pesto adds depth to the rich mayo while mingling with the nuanced features of tomato.

A jar of traditional pesto is enough to upgrade your average tomato sandwich. However, pesto comes in many shades of flavor, and you can add any you like.
