Guest post by my wife, Leigh
Leigh is rarely in the kitchen except to eat (her words, not mine!). But during our extended home stay, her culinary interests have increased a bit. She recently put together one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever tasted and we had no choice but to share – The Brie by Leigh Panini Sandwich is just too good to keep to ourselves.
Ingredients:
- Brie
- Ham and/or Chicken Sliced Fresh and Fully Cooked (lunchmeat can work too)
- Thick Whole Grain Bread
- Pepper Jelly (homemade but not yet posted) or fig or peach jam
- Apple or pear, sliced very thin
- Butter or butter spray (like Pam) or olive oil
Preparation:
- Spread outside of bread lightly with butter, butter-flavored cooking spray or olive oil
- Spread inside of bread (one side only) with pepper jelly
- Place meat, brie and fruit slices inside bread
- Grill (as you would grilled cheese) sandwich on both sides until bread is golden brown or place in a two-sided grill and heat as you would a panini
- Eat and enjoy!
