Add the basil leaves, reserving three large leaves for final sandwich, olive oil, flaky sea salt, nutritional yeast, and lemon juice, then blend until smooth, adding extra olive oil as needed. Taste and add salt or more lemon juice if desired.

- Build your sandwich -

On one slice of the sourdough bread, spread an ample serving of pesto. Layer Plant Provisons Tuscan slices, tomato slices, mozzarella (if using), and fresh basil leaves, then top with second sourdough slice. Cut in half, then serve and enjoy!
