Chickenless Parmigiana Paninis

from Dr. Praeger's Sensible Foods

Ingredients:

4 Kaiser rolls or other soft Italian rolls, split, partially hollowed out

2 cups marinara sauce

1 cup baby arugula or baby spinach leaves

2 roasted red peppers, rinsed, dried and split

4 Dr. Praeger’s Chickenless Patties, cooked according to package directions

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Preheat a panini press.*

Spread 1/4 cup marinara sauce onto bottom half of each roll.

Top with 1/4 cup arugula or spinach, 1/2 of a roasted pepper, one Dr. Praeger’s Chickenless

Patty, and 1/4 cup cheese. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.

Spread 1/4 cup marinara sauce on top half of each roll and place on top of sandwiches.

Grill on panini press until cheese is melted and bread has developed grill marks, 5 to 6

minutes. Serve hot

Notes:

Yield: Serves 4

*The difference between a panini and a regular sandwich is that a panini is grilled with ridges and the ingredients melt or fuse together.

If a panini pan is not an option, there are several other options:

You can make the sandwiches in a stove–top grill pan to get the grill marks. Or use a frying pan. In either case, press down lightly on the sandwich.

A Panini Stove Top Pan with Press

is also a good option.
