Grilled Pizza SandwichFor the maximum flavor, use vine-ripened tomatoes in the sauce. For quicker and easier preparation, simply use your favorite ready-made marinara or pizza sauce.

Sauce:
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups ripe tomatoes, seed and chopped
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
1/2 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons Wisconsin Parmesan Cheese, grated

Cooking Directions:

For Sauce: Drop garlic clove into food processor or blender while running. Turn off processor and add tomatoes, onion, basil, oregano and pepper; purée. Pour sauce into medium saucepan and heat to boiling over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 8 to 10 minutes, uncovered; stir in cream and Parmesan; simmer for 2 minutes until thick.
For Pizza Sandwich: Spread sauce on 1 side of each slice of bread, top with desired ingredients, sliced Fresh Mozzarella and 1/4 cup Mozzarella.
