Mozzarella and Pepperoni Panini - Modified from Lara at Recipe Shoebox
1 loaf of Parmesan Italian Fococcia Bread
1/4-1/2 C Balsamic Vinaigrette (Lara has a recipe for how to make your own)
Mozzarella cheese, to taste
Pepperoni (we used Turkey Pepperoni)
Cut your fococcia bread into "sandwich" sized portions.
We got 4 from our loaf. Then, slice them in half.
Slice the mozzarella cheese to taste, enough to cover half of each of the sandwiches. And, pour the vinaigrette into a small bowl.
Brush the bread with the Balsamic Vinaigrette.
Top half of the bread with mozzarella and pepperoni.
Then, place the other bread slice on top.
Place on a grill, in your George Foreman, or on the stove top in a frying pan, and heat/grill until the cheese melts and the pepperoni is warm.
Serve with a tossed salad or green beans, and enjoy.
We think these would be excellent with a pizza sauce on the bread, or with the Vinaigrette and sauteed veggies. Yum.
