Gone are the days of expecting soggy bread to fulfill our increasingly high sandwich expectations. Our Caprese Twitch recipe takes our Idahoan® Tater Tumblers® Original Mix with Spices and turns them into a crispy, crunchy base. Layer in juicy tomatoes, rich pesto, and melt-in-your-mouth mozzarella. Grill until golden brown for an elevated, satisfying take on a classic dish.
