Sometimes you just want a deliciously decadent and healthier sandwich! Here is a delicious recipe that could even be made without the prosciutto to make a vegetarian sandwich too. Loaded with goat cheese, vegetables, and all sorts of toppings, this sandwich is sure to please!
INGREDIENTS:
- Whole Grain Bread of choice (4 slices)
- Goat Cheese Crumbles (3-4 Tablespoons)
- Red Pepper Slices (We used 1/8 of a red pepper, cut into slices)
- Pickled Red Onions (get our recipe here)
- 1/3 of a Jalapeno - sliced very thinly
- Seasoning like salt and pepper
- Panini Maker (we love this one from Cuisinart, which has removable, dishwasher-safe plates)
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Add a layers of ingredients onto each piece of bread. One side has dijon mustard and prosciutto, the other side has red peppers, pickled red onions, goat cheese crumbles, and also slices of jalapeno, and optional seasoning (like a pinch of salt and pepper). Turn on panini maker.
2.) Carefully close sandwich sides together, and place into panini maker. Toast for 3 or so minutes, to ensure the bread does not burn, but that the cheese is nice and melty inside. Remove from panini maker with a spatula, cut in half, and ENJOY!!!
Note - this panini maker heats up pretty quickly, so there is no need to preheat for more than a few minutes. Also, make sure that the plates are sitting flat on your sandwich, compared to sitting at an angle, so the entire sandwich cooks evenly.
