I didn't add any measurements or amounts to this recipe because its really totally up to you and how many people you are feeding.
I used: salami, proscuttio, pesto, fresh basil, a bruschetta tomato sauce from Trader Joe's (the second time around I used a red pepper spread and that was even better!), mozzarella and a beautiful herbed focaccia bread also from, you guessed it, Trader Joe's.
I sliced the focaccia in half and spread pesto on one side and the tomato sauce on the other. I then layered one side with salami and the other with proscuttio. The fresh basil leaves and the sliced low moisture, part skim mozzarella came last. I put the sandwhich together and wrapped tightly with saran wrap. THEN - here is the "pressed" part - it needs to be weighted down in the fridge overnight. I laid two big college textbooks and a 10 lb kettlebell on each one - even less weight might be fine.
The next morning I unwrapped, trimmed up the edges, and cut into cute little rectangles. You can add a toothpick but they do pretty well holding up, even throughout the day.
