To assemble the panini, cut a ciabatta bread horizontally. Apply sundried tomato pesto to both sides of the bread, layer one side of the bread with tomato, mozarella, sprinkle a pinch of basil and a little red pepper flakes if using. Place the other bread on top.
Brush the outer sides of the bread with a little olive oil and place in the pre heated panini maker. Close and hold down gently for a few seconds. When done, remove and serve hot with soup of choice.
I think this Minestrone soup, or this Minestrone with pesto would go very well with this Panini.
Notes
In case you want to use fresh basil, use about 2 to 3 leaves, washed and cut into small pieces in each panini
