Nummy! My husband was skeptical at first, then demanded that I go back to recipezaar and review it!

    Very interesting combination of flavors! Was looking for quick ways to use the abundance of basil I have. Didn't have swiss cheese, so I substituted smokey provolone. Will be making again!

    This is a good sandwich. I loved the addition of pineapple especially! It is a nice change of pace from the old stand-by. All of the ingredients work together in a good way. Try this, you will like it! Thanks, Paula for sharing your recipe.

    Very good! A simple twist on a regular ham and cheese sandwich. A big hit with the kids too! I loved the flavour of the basil coming thorugh too. Thanks for a yummy recipe!
