Step 1/3
SANDWICH: On a piece of foil, place a slightly smaller piece of parchment paper. Brush one side of a piece of bread with olive oil and place it on the paper oil side down. Cover the other side of the bread with a layer of pesto, 2 slices of tomato, and 2 slices of mozzarella. Finish with more pesto , then add a second slice of bread on top, and finally brush with more olive oil. Close the foil around the sandwich by wrapping up 3 sides, and cook for 4 minutes on high in a toaster.
Step 2/3
FONDUE: Melt the mini mozzarella balls in a saucepan with the white wine. Season with salt and pepper. Cut the bread into cubes and brush them with a mix of the chopped garlic, thyme, and olive oil. Bake for 5 minutes at 350 °F. Fill skewers with a cherry tomato, a basil leaf, and the crouton. Dip them in the fondue.
Step 3/3
CHEESE BALLS: Cut the top off of the large mozzarella balls to create a hat, leaving one edge still attached. Hollow out the middles and stuff with chopped tomato, half a slice of prosciutto, and a basil leaf. Coat the balls in flour, beaten egg, and breadcrumbs. Fry in hot oil until golden brown. Enjoy!
