Ingredients

  • 3 rolls or 6 slices ciabatta rolls or whole-grain bread
  • 300 g sliced turkey breast (deli-style, low sodium)
  • 90 g fresh mozzarella, sliced
  • 3 tbsp pesto
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced thin
  • 1 medium tomato, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 150 g mixed salad greens
  • 3 tbsp lemon vinaigrette
  • to taste n/a salt
  • to taste n/a black pepper

Instructions

1

Preheat a panini press or stovetop grill pan over medium heat.

2

If using ciabatta rolls, cut them in half. If using whole-grain bread, lay out the slices. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of pesto on each piece of bread.

3

Layer the turkey slices evenly over three of the bread pieces.

4

On top of the turkey, add sliced fresh mozzarella followed by thin slices of zucchini and tomato. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.

5

Top with the other slice of bread or the top half of the ciabatta roll (with pesto side facing down).

6

Brush the outer sides of the bread with olive oil. Place the sandwich on the grill and press down. Grill each sandwich for about 3-5 minutes or until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.

7

While the paninis are grilling, toss the mixed salad greens with lemon vinaigrette in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

8

Once the paninis are ready, remove from the grill and let them rest for a minute before cutting each one in half.

9

Serve the paninis hot with the side salad.
