Tapenade, Mozzarella, and Tomato Panini

Tapenade, Mozzarella, and Tomato Panini

by Pam on September 26, 2012

I had leftover tapenade[1] to use up as well as some French bread so I decided to make a panini. I added a bit of mozzarella and some tomato slices and this sandwich ended up being AMAZING. I loved the salty tapenade with the crisp bread and the gooey cheese. It was simple, quick (literally took 5 minutes), and so delicious. I am excited to say that I still have some tapenade and French bread left… guess what I’ll be having for lunch tomorrow!

Make the tapenade[2].

Preheat your panini grill or a grill pan over medium heat.

Place a little bit of mozzarella on top of one slice of bread.  Add the tapenade to the top of the cheese followed by the tomato slices and a little more cheese.  Place the other piece of bread on top.

Place into your panini pan (or grill pan).  Cook for 5 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.  Serve immediately.  Enjoy!

Side Note:  I always cook my paninis dry.  I find that using oil or butter on the bread makes the sandwich too greasy.  Try it – I bet you will like it and it’s way better for you!
