Grilled Paninis

After my mother-in-law shared her love for grilled sandwiches that she makes, I decided to try it on my George Foreman Grill (since I don't have a gas/charcoal grill). I made this recipe up on the spot--and my husband loved it! It's a quick, delicious meal--perfect for a busy summer afternoon.

Loaf of Italian Bread (sliced into 1 or 2 inch pieces)

Deli Ham

Deli Turkey

Pepperoni

White American Cheese (slices)

Shredded Lettuce

Mayo

Brown Mustard (optional)

Roma Tomatoes

Salt

Fresh Ground Pepper

Butter/Margarine Spread

Assemble each sandwich as follows:

Spread a small amount of mayo on one side of two slices of bread. On one slice, pile on shredded lettuce and sliced tomatoes. Sprinkle withe salt and fresh ground pepper. On the other slice of bread, layer cheese, ham, turkey, and pepperonis. Put sandwich halves together. On outside of each side of sandwich, spread with a small amount of butter/margarine. Place on grill or sandwich press. Cook until both sides are toasted and golden brown and the cheese is melted.

I served these sandwiches with chips and lots of fresh fruit.
