Caprese Panini with Roasted Sweet Bell Peppers

Now that I have announced that a new goal in the keenie kitchen is to be more sustainable, it wouldn't be good to not use those saved grocery items! Last weekend I craved a panini, this weekend I had the motivation to finally satisfy that craving and make them.

Shopping List/ Pantry:

• Fresh Mozzarella
• Fresh tomatoes
• Basil
• Your homemade roasted sweet bell peppers
• Bread

Putting it together:

1. Preheat your panini grill to a medium/hot temperature
2. Slice the tomatoes, chop up the fresh basil and assemble the panini, top with a few cracks of fresh ground black pepper.
3. Put the sandwiches on the panini grill (I have a Cuisinart Griddler)
4. Once you can see the mozzarella starts to melt, turn up the heat for a minute or two to put a nice crispy golden finish on the toasted bread.
