Pesto Panini
Confession from my own kitchen floor: Since Whole Foods opened a new store near by our house, we have been eating in the store a lot… Well, cut me some slack, tonight I bring you – Panini!
I used to hate cold sandwiches and hard leathery bread, however it has been a difference experience ever since I started making my hot warm paninis. I’m glad I gave it a second chance.
Ingredients: all leftovers (told you to cut me some slack, meanwhile it’s time to clear the fridge), Italian bread, pesto, olive oil, arugula, tofu and roasted eggplant
EVOO and minced garlic spread
Gently spread outside of the bread
Spread the basil pesto inside
Grill tofu
Add in tofu, arugula, grilled eggplants and cheese, etc.
Like that
Get ready!
Press it for about 5 minutes until you see the grill marks

His lunch for tomorrow
It’s my kind of sandwich. Warm and freshly made. The melted cheese and roasted eggplant make it so moist inside. Man, basil in every bite. This is the only way to go! (sorry to be bossy)
Homemade basil pesto seriously makes everything better. It is truly a fridge killer app you must have!
