Grilled Italian Roll

This summer we moved to a bigger place and finally we could check off two items on our wishlist: A Patio Swing and An Outdoor Grill. We ordered them online as soon as we moved and fortunately got them delivered super quick to make the best use for this summer. 

We have owned electric grill for quite some time but hardly have hands on experience with gas grill. So after successfully trying simple recipe like burger, I was all set to cook REAL food. And what better way to kick start Memorial Day Weekend?

These rolls are combination of pizza and sandwich. They are stuffed with grilled veggies, marinara sauce, pesto sauce and cheese. Crunchy from outside and moist and juicy from inside, these rolls are perfect supper for summer night.
