Italian Panini with Turkey Ham, Mozzarella and Pesto
Who doesn't love a crispy, cheesy panini? This one is a true trip to Italy, right from your kitchen. The ciabatta bread, lightly toasted on the griddle, holds a generous heart of melting mozzarella di bufala, flavorful turkey ham, and sun-dried tomatoes that add a sweet touch.
