Christina's Notes
- Add Vegetables: Try adding a little veget to your panini with tomatoes, tomato slices really brighten the meal or try spinach, pepper or mushrooms.
- Different Bread: Feel free to try ciabatta rolls, sourdough bread or other hardy bread slices.
- Different Cheese: Provolone cheese, sharp cheddar or whatever you have.
- Deli Turkey: Sliced turkey from the deli can be a great replacement.
