Not really a recipe today, this is one of our most popular bruschetta in La Cucina so I thought I’d share it with you. It’s perfect for an antipasti or light lunch and very simple to put together.

what you need:

bruschetta bread or ciabatta

parma ham

buffalo mozzarella

rocket

pesto(optional)

olive oil

what to do:

toast your bread on both sides.

top with pesto and cheese and melt under the grill

serve with parma ham and rocket on top and drizzle with a little olive oil.

    Pesto in Italy is used only for pasta, we never use for panini :-)

    I KNOW:) But we’re in Ireland and everybody loves pesto on everything here so we have to give the people what they want. We only have it with pasta ourselves…

    I would agree with Lors. Its such a shame to reserve pesto only for pasta, when it has so many other great uses.
