Fried sandwiches stuffed with basil and mozzarella, dipped in marinara, are like the Italian fusion of grilled cheese and mozzarella sticks.

ingredients
1 1/2 pound thinly sliced mozzarella cheese
12 slices whole-wheat bread
18 fresh large basil leaves
8 large eggs
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
olive oil, for deep-frying
2 cups all-purpose flour, more if needed
1 cup marinara sauce
directions
Divide half of the cheese equally among half the bread slices. Top with the basil leaves then the remaining cheese. Cover with the remaining bread slices, pressing gently, to form sandwiches.
Whisk the eggs, salt, and pepper in a large, shallow dish until well blended and frothy. Place the flour in another shallow dish.
Add enough oil to a large, heavy frying pan to come 1/2-inch up the sides of the pan. Heat the oil over medium heat.
Dredge the sandwiches in the flour to coat lightly, then dredge them in the egg mixture to coat completely and place in the hot oil. Cook until the cheese melts and the sandwiches are golden, about 3 minutes per side. Cut the sandwiches into triangles. Transfer the sandwiches to a platter and serve with the marinara sauce.

Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
