Savory French Toast Sandwiches With Pesto

• 3 Roma tomatoes halved lengthwise
• cooking oil spray
• 8 slices bread wholegrain
• 2 tablespoons basil pesto
• 3 ounces mozzarella cheese grated
• 2 ounces baby spinach
• 3 1/2 tablespoons butter
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup milk

1. Preheat a grill pan over high heat. Lightly spray tomatoes with oil and grill for 3 mins on each side or until browned and just soft. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
2. To assemble, spread 4 slices of bread with pesto. Top each with cheese and spinach, then the remaining bread slices. Secure with toothpicks.
3. To cook, melt half the butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Whisk eggs and milk in a shallow dish. Dip 2 sandwiches into egg mixture, turning, until bread is completely soaked. Add sandwiches to the frying pan and cook for 2 mins on each side or until golden and cooked through. Repeat with remaining butter and sandwiches. Discard toothpicks and cut sandwiches in half. Serve with the tomatoes.
