Top Tip: Wrap it tight in foil, allow it to marinade and meld together for a day and enjoy it hot or cold the next day. To heat this, still wrapped in the foil, pop it into a prep heated oven and cook for 15 minutes until oozy and melty.

Top and tail the courgette. Slice into thin rounds. Brush with oil and griddle on a low to medium heat until tender. Alternatively, a George Foreman grill or the BBQ works great.

Slice the bread lengthwise. Spread the pesto on one side of the bread and the creamy balsamic on the other side.
