Source of Recipe


Adapted from "Panini, Bruschetta, Crostini"






List of Ingredients



• 1/3 cup light mayonnaise
  
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  
• Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  
• 8 slices thick-sliced sesame French bread
  
• 1/2 cup finely sliced jarred pickled peppers (or 2 tsp drained capers)
  
• 6 ounces white Cheddar cheese, thinly sliced
  
• 1 tomato, cored and thinly sliced
  
• About 3 Tbsp olive oil
  






Instructions



1. Stir together the mayonnaise and mustard. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Heat oven to 275 degrees (F) and place a baking sheet in the oven.
   
   
2. Lay out bread and spread lightly with the seasoned mayonnaise. Layer cheese, pickled peppers and tomato slices on the bread. Top with the remaining bread slices, pressing down lightly. Lightly brush the tops with olive oil.
   
   
3. Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium heat 5 minutes. Put 2 of the sandwiches into the pan, oiled side down. Press down lightly with a spatula and grill a couple of minutes until well browned. Brush tops lightly with olive oil. Turn and grill until browned and the cheese begins to melt. Transfer to baking sheet in oven. Grill remaining sandwiches.
   
   Cut sandwiches on the diagonal. Serve with fruit, a salad or soup.
   
   Makes 4 sandwiches.
