Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients for the sandwiches. Rinse and dry the fresh basil and arugula, and slice roasted red peppers, mozzarella, and turkey. Blend mayonnaise with sun-dried tomatoes until creamy for a flavorful spread.
  2. Take one half of the focaccia bread and spread sun-dried tomato mayonnaise evenly. On the other half, spread a layer of pesto.
  3. On the mayonnaise side, layer deli turkey, prosciutto, roasted red peppers, and mozzarella. Drizzle with balsamic glaze, then add basil and arugula.
  4. Place the other half of the focaccia on top, pressing down gently. Let it sit for a minute to meld flavors.
  5. Cut the sandwiches into quarters or halves, serve fresh, and enjoy!
