Steps:

  • Spread one side of a slice of bread with butter, and place it, buttered side down, into a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • Spread the top of the bread slice in the skillet with half the pesto sauce, and place a slice of provolone cheese, the tomato slices, and the slice of American cheese onto the pesto.
  • Spread remaining pesto sauce on one side of the second slice of bread, and place the bread slice, pesto side down, onto the sandwich. Butter the top side of the sandwich.
  • Gently fry the sandwich, flipping once, until both sides of the bread are golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes per side.

Pesto Cheese Blossom (Paula Deen) image

Steps:

  • Line a medium bowl with plastic wrap, leaving enough overhang to cover the top.
  • Reserving 3 slices of provolone, line the bottom and sides of the bowl with remaining provolone, overlapping slices.
  • For the cream cheese layer, process the cream cheese, pistachios, and 1 garlic clove in a food processor until blended; scrape the mixture into a bowl and set aside.
  • For the pesto layer, process the basil, parsley, pine nuts and the remaining garlic clove in the food processor until blended.
  • Dissolve the salt and pepper in the olive oil and mix well.
  • With the machine running, add the oil in a fine stream.
  • Scrape this mixture into a second bowl and set aside.
  • For the tomato layer, drain the tomatoes, reserving the oil.
  • Puree the tomatoes with a small amount of the reserved oil in a food processor.
  • Spread some of the cream cheese mixture over the cheese slices lining the bowl.
  • Layer the pesto mixture, half of the remaining cream cheese mixture, the sun-dried tomato mixture and then remaining cream cheese mixture in the bowl.
  • Cover with remaining provolone.
  • Bring edges of the plastic wrap together over the top and secure with a twist tie.
  • *Freeze until firm to the touch.
  • Remove the plastic wrap and invert the mold onto a serving platter.
  • To serve, slice thinly and serve with party crackers.
  • This will keep in the refrigerator for up to three months.
  • *Note:Original recipe says to freeze until firm, but I wasn't sure how that would work out.
  • I just froze for about an hour until it was firm enough to unmold.
  • Can be store easily in the refrigerator.
