- In a large bowl, combine the potatoes and green beans. Add the basil pesto and pine nuts, then gently mix until well coated.
- Warm the Focaccia with Cherry Tomatoes, Pesto & Mozzarella cheese in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 7-9 minutes or until slightly crispy.
- Serve your Focaccia Lanterna with Cherry Tomatoes, Pesto & Mozzarella cheese alongside the salad for a perfectly balanced meal.
Serving Tip
