Tomato, Fresh Mozzarella, Roasted Pepper on Whole Wheat Bread
Other sandwiches I love that don’t require heating up are Prosciutto Arugula and Balsamic Sandwich, Greek Salad Sandwich and Open Faced Heirloom Tomato Sandwich.
I live two blocks away from a really great Italian ravioli store called Pastosa. Aside from the best homemade raviolis they carry an amazing array of fresh breads from Brooklyn, homemade fresh mozzarella, roasted peppers, and lots of other temping goodies. It’s actually dangerous walking in there as all their mouth watering goodies are displayed right there in front of you.
Today I had a plan and didn’t stray, I picked up some roasted peppers, tomatoes, a wonderful whole wheat loaf and fresh mozzarella, sliced thin (great trick to keep yourself from using too much as it is not low in fat!) I came home and picked some basil from my garden and put this delicious and satisfying lunch together.
Tomato, Fresh Mozzarella, Roasted Pepper on Whole Wheat Bread
Ingredients
- 3.25 oz whole wheat Italian or French Bread
- 1 oz thin sliced fresh mozzarella
- 1 oz roasted red peppers
- 3 slices ripe tomato
- 3 basil leaves
- 1/4 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
- salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cut bread in half horizontally, layer ingredients on the bread, drizzle olive oil and vinegar and finish with salt and pepper.
This was sooo yummy. I ended up toasting the roll and adding some olive oil to each piece directly. Excellent. One of my new favorites, thank you.

This picture is making me salivateeeeeeeeeeeeee :P''' drool!
I adore it, if you choose mozzarella di buffala is much much tastier! Try it!
Had this for lunch. It was perfect for a light summer lunch!
a long time ago I lived above an Italian Deli in NYC… I still miss all those amazing sandwiches they would have ready. Reminds me of those days. Just loving this post
nothing better than Pastosa……Oceanside? I used to go to the Valley Stream one all the time…ahhhh memories…
You could heat it up in a panini press!
This is a good substitute to Panera Bread's "tomato mozzarella panini"!
It's like a bruschetta sandwich. Surely there could be nothing bad about this. Yumm. 🙂
This looks AMAZING! Yumm I love fresh mozzarella! I want to make this 🙂
This sounds so tasty! I love the red pepper. Yum!
Looks amazing! I need to try this! Joules
I have just discovered your site, and am so glad I have! I am a Weight Watcher from days gone by, but have been needing to get back into the swing of things. Bless you for putting Points AND Points+ values! All of these meals look just fabulous. Thank you for sharing!
Simple and healthy sandwich not to mention using fresh ingredients put this dish on the top.
Yum!! Looks so good!
Wowsers, that made me drool! Love your blog, such pretty pictures x
Wow all the bread and cheese for under 400 calories? I'm in =)
This looks great. I'm going to try it on whole wheat bagel thins. I love your recipes.
I love this sandwich! Fresh mozzarella can be a dangerous thing for me, my boyfriend is a cook in an Italian cafe and likes to bring it home often, but this is a perfect and healthy way to use it! And it's a good thing the Brooklyn Pastosa is only a short ride away from me! I love that store, such classic Italian deliciousness!
The perfect summer sandwich. Beautiful!
This is my all time favorite sandwich. I like adding a little pesto to the bread and top with mozzarella cheese,basil leaves, tomatoes and roasted red pepper. I heat it so it gets melty and there is lunch or dinner.
I just got a whole bunch of fresh peppers at the farmers market yesterday! And one of them is destined to be on this sandwich…
