  2. Assemble the Sandwich:

    • On one slice, arrange the sliced tomatoes and fresh basil leaves.
    • Add the sliced mozzarella cheese on top. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper for added flavor.
    • Place the second slice of bread on top, sauce-side down, to close the sandwich.

  3. Toast the Sandwich:
