A sandwich for lunch doesn’t have to mean another boring peanut butter and jelly (although, a pb&j does hit the spot some days) with just a few ingredients you can create a delicious sandwich that will soon become a favorite.

Since it’s just me home during the day I find that sandwiches or salads are the easiest lunch to make and the Tuscan Chicken Sandwich has become one of my favorites.Tuscan Chicken Sandwich

I know that pesto and jarred roasted red peppers probably aren’t items that are found in many pantries, but after trying this sandwich I’m sure you’ll be stocking them on a regular basis.

Tuscan Chicken This recipe calls for gouda cheese, but if that isn’t your preference you can exchange for swiss, mozzarella or a cheese more to your liking. If you are lactose sensitive or intolerant you can use a goat cheese instead.

Pile all the ingredients in between the slices of bread and grill in a pan that has a light coating of olive oil. A couple minutes on each side to get the bread nice and crispy and lunch is done.

Serve with a salad of greens topped with a vinaigrette dressing or cut up fruit for a complete meal.
