Making a great sandwich is an art form. Dramatics aside—when you get it right, there’s really nothing better! Luckily, we’ve made nailing it totally effortless. (All you have to do is assemble and dig in.) This one’s got crusty bread, creamy garlic basil mayo, salty prosciutto, ripe tomato, and mozz. Put it together at the office or be your own best friend and whip it up before you leave for work. When noon rolls around, you’ll be looking at the fridge with heart eyes.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Fresh basil mayo was so much better than premade pesto and prosciutto is a perfect salty addition. Caprese sandwiches should always be like this - everything fresh down to the bread

The easy to make flavored mayo makes this a step beyond a regular caprese sandwich. The bread is so yummy too. Great lunch with my daughter.

This was a well-thought of sandwich recipe! Very delicious and filling. We opted to sauteing the garlic and toasting the breads.

Quick and easy lunch. Little touches that I wouldn't have thought of made all of the difference (the Mayo with garlic and basil, yum)

Great sandwich, mayo especially! I would like the option to double up on the prosciutto for people who want a meatier sandwich.

What a great tasting sandwich. Super easy to make. I gave it 4 stars because one of the tomatoes came rotten. Thankfully I had a few extra ones on my fridge. Very good recipe for a quick lunch.

Love this one! I probably wouldn't use as much garlic it calls for. I made it for lunch (second one) and was delicious adding balsamic vinegar - no mayonnaise.

Loved it, I lightly toasted the bread and substituted the mayo for some olive oil and added some balsamic vinegar

One of my rolls was super small and difficult to make a sandwich with. The garlic basil mayo was good but I preferred the pesto.

Way too garlicky. It should be roasted first maybe or just garlic powder. Otherwise really good. I'd like to see some variations with salami or capicola.
