Panini with Cucumber and Tomato Salad

Salad: european cucumber, sugar plum tomatoes, and chopped red onion tossed with a dressing of apple cider vinegar, celery seed, salt, pepper, and olive oil.

Sandwich: sourdough smeared with hummus, dry salami, sliced mushroom, pecorino romano, sliced jalapeno, red onion, sliced garlic… panini pressed or baked open faced at ~350°F until cheese melts and garlic browns then topped with sliced avocado and tzatziki sauce (greek yogurt, cucumber, dill, garlic).

    • I’ve made these delicious sort of sandwiches a lot… they’re a favorite with lunch guests or to make in the morning (although it’s not fast) and take into work.
      Many times I use Kyopolou, made with eggplant and red pepper, instead of hummus:

      I should add Kyopolou to my “to do” list for people that don’t have a Bulgarian community or a Trader Joe’s nearby. :)
      A Bulgarian friend brought their homemade Kyopolou and someone asked if it was from Trader Joe’s! Yikes.
