Ingredients

8 slices of bread of choice (about 1/2-inches thick)
4 tbsp Filippo Berio Classic Pesto
1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced
150g fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced

Method

Brush one side of each slice of bread with pesto. Layer avocado and mozzarella over half of the slices; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with remaining bread. Brush outside of sandwiches with oil.
Heat large skillet (or toastie maker) over medium-low heat; cook sandwiches, in batches if needed, for 2 to 3 minutes per side, pressing lightly, until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted.
