Great sandwich though I did diverse a little on how I made it. I used thickly sliced sourdough and grilled/broiled it on one side and then lathered the herb/oil mix (definately be using this mix to make herb/garlic bread in future. I used oregano) on the untoasted side and grilled/broiled it and then topped it with the goats cheese and tomatoe slices and a sprinkle of pepper (don't care for olives that much) and had a very enjoyable lunch, thank you lazyme for posting, made for Went to Market tag game.
