- After removing them from the grill, drizzle the spears with lime juice.
- Brush one side of bread slices with olive oil, and toast slightly on grill.
- Slice the cocktail tomatoes.
- To assemble the sandwiches, spread 1 slice of bread with 2 tablespoons pesto.

- Top with another slice of bread.
- Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Cut sandwiches in half and enjoy!
