Club Panini Sandwiches

What is more comforting than a grilled sandwich? I really can’t think of many things. This one has 2 types of meat, cheese, and guac. I even added potato chips to give it a little crunch and to remind me of my younger years at lunch time.

Club Panini Sandwiches

2 Servings

Ingredients:

• 4 slices bread (I used Texas toast.)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
• 1/4 cup cheddar cheese blend, shredded
• 4 slices bacon, cooked
• 4 slices of mesquite smoked turkey
• 4 tablespoons guacamole, room temperature
• 2 tablespoons plain potato chips, crumbled, optional

Directions:

Butter one side of each slice of bread. Place the bread, buttered side down to assemble your sandwich.

First, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cheese on one piece of bread. Next, layer 2 slices of bacon on top. Add 2 slices of turkey, 2 tablespoons of guacamole, 1 tablespoon of plain potato chips (if you choose), and another tablespoon of cheese. Close the sandwich with the second piece of bread, buttered side up.

Repeat for the second sandwich.

Heat a panini pan over medium heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. Add the sandwiches, and grill until the bread is golden and the cheese has melted, about 2-3 minutes on each side. You can use the spatula to compress the sandwich or use the panini weighted topper. Remove the sandwiches from the pan. (Alternatively you can also use a panini maker.)

Cut the sandwiches in half, and serve warm.

Enjoy!!
