Alright, I admit it….I love pinterest and I love getting meal ideas from it! I saw this pin a few days ago and it looked SOOO yummy that I just had to try it! The original recipe was just spinach, avocado, and goat cheese but I decided to add tomato and some orange bell pepper in the mix and it was awesome!
Here are my ingredients…
Spinach, Avocado, Orange Bell Pepper, Roma Tomatoes, Goat Cheese, and Sara Lee Whole Grain Bread (45 cal/slice)
Then I had to get my handy dandy panini grill ready to go. I got this amazing grill/griddle for my birthday and I love it because it has removable plates and it can also lay down flat like a griddle. This one is made by cuisinart.
After I turned on the grill, I prepped the bread & veggies. I applied a small amount of Earth Balance butter to both slides of the bread so that I could get that nice panini grill look! Then it was time to prep/slice the veggies & goat cheese.
Then it was time to build! I started with the spinach & avocado
Then I added the tomatoes, bell pepper & goat cheese
Time for the grill! I put the setting on high, took about 4 minutes…
Then my camera battery died on me! Good thing I had my cell phone! (lesson learned) And here my friends, was the sandwich I had for dinner. I paired it with some cherries and it was fabulous!
What happened to the other 2 sandwiches? Well, I shared with my parents since the hubs was out of town. Guess what? They loved it too!
