One of our guest chiefs came for lunch before going to the Oregon City lavendar festival. Mike's Father Day gift was a panini maker. What a better way to entertain before "smelling the flowers"!
Grill sliced:
- eggplant
- zucchini
- onions
- organic bell pepper
Each person made his/her own sandwich by provide bowls and plates of:
- cheeses
- salami
- ham
- mustards
- mayonnaise
- horseradis
- pesto
- hummus
- breads
- spinach & basil leaves
- tomatoes
- mixed lettuces
- avacado
- artichoke heart
- apples
- jams
- butter and/or olive oil (Some like to coat the top and bottom of the bread.)
- chocolate with brie (more of a dessert panini)
If you do not have a panini machine, cook the sandwich in a skillet with a heavy frying pan on top.
Serve with mineral water, dolmas, and variety of olives.
