Ingredients
- 4 slices sour dough sandwich bread
- 4 slices mozzarella cheese
- 1 tomato, thinly sliced
- 6-8 fresh basil leaves
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1-2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, shredded
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat waffle iron. Lightly brush olive oil on one side of the bread slices.
- Slice red onion and place in cold water for five minutes. Drain well.
- Assemble the sandwiches by layering 2 slices of mozzarella cheese, 3-4 basil leaves, 2-3 slices tomato, and a few pieces of red onion on one slice of bread (not the side with the olive oil). Drizzle with 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the loaded bread slice in the middle of the waffle iron. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese and top with another bread slice, olive oil side up.
- Close waffle iron lid and cook until lightly toasted and the cheese is melty. If desired, press lid down to compress sandwich while cooking.
