Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towel and season with salt and pepper. Lay skin-side down on a cutting board or plate and top each fillet with a tablespoon of pesto, or more to taste, ensuring the entire top of the fillet is evenly covered. Set aside while you prepare the phyllo.
- Lay a sheet of phyllo flat on a work surface and brush with olive oil. Lay another sheet on top, brushing with oil. Repeat process for a total of four sheets, leaving the top of the last sheet dry. Place one of the prepared salmon fillets at the bottom of the stack of phyllo sheets with the pesto side facing up. Roll over once, so the skin side is facing up, then fold over the sides. Brush all over with oil. Continue rolling until the end of the phyllo, then place on the parchment-lined baking sheet with the pesto side facing up and brush the top with oil. Score the top 2 to 3 times to allow steam to escape. Repeat with the remaining salmon and phyllo.
- Bake parcels in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the phyllo is golden brown. Remove from oven and let rest a minute or two before serving.

Steps:
- Make the pesto: Add the dill, parsley, garlic, walnuts, salt, and lemon juice to a high-powered blender or food processor and pulse, scraping down the sides as needed, until roughly chopped.
- Turn the blender or food processor on medium speed and slowly pour in the olive oil, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed. Blend for 1-2 minutes, until the pesto is smooth. The pesto will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Make the grilled cheese: Spread one side of each slice of bread with ½ tablespoon butter, then spread ½ teaspoon pesto on top of the butter on each slice.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the pan, then spread with ¼ cup (10 g) pesto and top with the Cabot Garlic and Dill Cheddar Cheese. Cover with the other slice of bread, buttered side up.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown, then use a spatula to flip the sandwich and and cook for 3-5 minutes on the other side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is completely melted. Remove from the pan and let rest for 1 minute before slicing.
- Sprinkle with the dill and serve.
- Enjoy!

- Heat a large pan/skillet or over medium-low heat. (Or to cook more than one at once you can cook on a large electric griddle heated to medium-low.)
- Butter all of slices of bread on one of the sides, spread just enough for a light coat of butter over the one side, the butter sides will be the outside of the sandwich.
- On the non butter sides spread about 1 teaspoon of pesto evenly over all of the slices of bread, the amount you will use will depend on the size of your bread. You don't want to oversaturate your bread with the pesto, a thin even spread works best here.
- Carefully cut even slices of the mozzarella, you will want about 2 slices per sandwich (or 8 slices in total) If your bread is bigger/smaller you may have to adjust the amount of slices that go on your sandwich, make sure that the cheese covers most of the slice of bread but it will melt and spread out a bit so full coverage is not necessary.
