If you know me, you know I love to grill vegetables in the summer. For us, meat never goes on the grill alone. We always throw on some zucchini, bell peppers, corn, asparagus, you name it! There’s something about the smokey flavor and seeing those grill marks!
Grilling is definitely a huge part of our summer. I just made this Grilled Veggie and Pesto Sandwich! Now, recently I posted a photo on Instagram and someone asked me for recommendations on what to use aside from basil for pesto. The possibilities are endless! 
We absolutely love this Brownberry Oatnut bread! Grilling the bread just made it that much better. It was absolutely fantastic with my spinach and basil pesto and all the grilled veggies!
I loved this sandwich with a mix of fresh and grilled veggies! I added sprouts and fresh tomatoes! So good! I hope you give this sandwich a try soon! Enjoy!
