• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut into Italian demi-loaves (or 1 large loaf) at 1-inch intervals, taking care not to slice all the way through. Spread 1 teaspoon pesto between each slice. Stuff with thinly sliced low-moisture mozzarella and thinly sliced Taleggio. Wrap in parchment-lined foil and bake on a rimmed baking sheet until bread is crisp and cheese is melted, about 25 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces. Combine olive oil and pesto. Dip biscuit pieces into pesto mixture until coated; place in an 8-inch round baking pan.
