Chicken Cheese and Avocado Panini

It has been FOREVER since I have last blogged. I apologize... We recently returned from a long month away from home, and it feels so great to be back home and cooking again! Don't get me wrong, vacations are a good way to take a break from the every day routine and chores, but it makes me more then ready to start cooking and baking when I get home.

Who doesn't love warm, toasted, crunchy goodness? The everyday sandwich is nice every once in a while,  but a PANINI... now that's a different story. The melted cheese, the caramelized piping hot vegetables, those are the ingredients that really make a sandwich


INGREDIENTS

2 slices whole wheat bread (Dave's Killer Bread is the best)

Chicken breast

Cheese (quantity and type to your liking)

Avocado

Tomatoes

Onion

Bell Pepper

Mayo

Thaw and cook your chicken till cooked all the way through (no pink)

Take one slice of bread and spread mayonnaise out to the edge of the crust. Slice your avocado, onion, bell pepper, tomatoes, and cheese. Caramelize your onions and bell peppers until desired softness or crunchiness.

Pile all your delicious fix ins on your bread and grill until golden brown and cheese is melted.

This sandwich is perfect to serve with a bowl of tomato soup or butternut squash soup. Enjoy!
