The sandwich itself is very simple. Fresh mozzarella, beefsteak tomato, fresh basil (from our plant that I haven't killed yet - yay!). Whole grain bread slathered in butter. The thing that really brings it to the next level is the drizzle of balsamic reduction - it adds a tangy sweetness that is just lovely. I've never made a balsamic reduction before, but I felt like trying something new, and it was actually surprisingly easy!

Grilled Caprese Sandwich with Balsamic Reduction
Info Post
School has started again. As I try to adapt to waking up for 8 o'clock lab and sit through 2-3 hour classes, instead of the usual 1 or 1 1/2 hour, I wonder how I'm going to survive this semester. Considering this has been my thought every semester of pharmacy school thus far, I'm not too worried. I adapt, fall into the new routine, and next thing I know, the semester is over. Yesterday, I felt like a zombie, just going through the motions of the first day, but that's probably because just I came off a pretty crazy weekend (albeit so fun and full of family visits). That meant I allowed Alex to choose dinner last night. We had nachos and miso soup. Tonight, I was feeling a bit more ambitious, after a big shopping trip, so I made these sandwiches.
