Chicken, Peppers and Cheese Panini Sandwich

December 17, 2011 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 5 Comments

EDITED RECIPE – I forgot to add the tomato slices

Hello and Happy Saturday!

I can’t believe how fast the time is going!  Next week is Christmas already.  Are you done Christmas shopping?  I like to think I am, but I need to check my list to make sure I didn’t forget anyone.

This was the first year I actually didn’t use my credit cards, no cross that, after my last cc bill, I realized I can no longer use them, I WAY over spent, so the last remaining gifts, which was most, I paid cash.  Talk about hard.  However, you tend to be more aware of your spending when your not using a credit card.  This Christmas was hard, normally I just buy whatever, but not this year, I had to think good and hard on my gifts, but I think I did ok!  For a bunch of my friends, I told them I would bake them goodies instead of gifts and they were happy with that, since most of them don’t cook, so this weekend is going to be a baking weekend.  So after I am done blogging, I am going to start prepping, making peanut butter, cookie dough and refrigerating it till Sunday for quick baking and I’m making granola!  I just love my baking weekends and tonight is a Christmas party, so no licking the bowl for me!!  Must be good!!!

Ok, first I have to tell you, a good portion of you bloggers are just HORRIBLE!   I saw this on several blog sites, and I thought no, no, no!  Then I saw it again, and said yes, yes, yes!  You know what I’m talking about?  You know who you are!  For those who don’t know, I am talking about this!!!


I saw this at Trader Joe’s about a month ago, picked it up, put it back and I did that a ton of times, then today, I picked it up and put it in my cart.  I rushed home to try it and OMG!  It is so dam good!  Yes I can say dam, it’s worth it.  It tastes like a sugar cookie, it’s so good.  I wish I never bought it.   Trader Joe’s better keep this in stock year round!  I plan on making my Classic Peanut Butter Cookies with this, or maybe a sugar cookie with it?  I don’t know yet, but I’m making some kind of cookie with it, thats of course if I don’t eat the whole jar!  I already made a pretty decent dent in it, and it’s only a few hours old.  If you go to TJ’s be warned, if you buy this, you will love it!!!

Now for my quick meal of the day.  This is so simple, probably not worth posting, since everyone knows how to make a sandwich, but I just have to tell you anyway, it was just that good.  One thing you may not know about me, is that I LOVE sandwiches, but then again you probably do know that since I love bread!  This sandwich was made with leftover garlic chicken from last night.

I used a Panini press to make it, but if you don’t have one you could do the following:  Put the sandwich in a frying pan and top with another frying pan to press it down, or this old trick I learned from Martha Stewart.  Take a brick cover it in aluminum foil and place on sandwich.  I do this when I cook a sandwich on the grill.  It works great!

Another sandwich trick is to cut a huge chunk of bread, pop it on the scale to see what weight you have and rip out the center until you get 3 or 4 oz.  When I used the Ciabatta Bread, it was 5 ounces, so I brought it down to 4 (two servings at 130 calories each) just by taking some of the bread out.  The best part of the sandwich is the bread so you want a large sandwich that you can fill sky high with goodies on the inside!  Taking out the inner bread makes for more room and more peppers for me!!

Chicken, Peppers and Cheese Panini Sandwich

Ingredients:

4oz.  Ciabatta Bread

1.5 oz Chicken – Cooked

1 Roasted Red Pepper – Jarred, large piece, rinsed and pat dried

1/2 oz Lite Mozzarella Cheese – shredded or in thin pieces (Provolone would be good to)

2 slices Tomato

1/3 Cup fresh spinach leaves

1 Tbsp.  Balsamic Dressing – I used Trader Joe’s Fat Free Balsamic

Directions:

Place in this order, Bottom piece of bread, chicken, peppers, cheese, tomato slices and spinach.  Place your dressing on the inside top piece of bread that way the bread soaks up the dressing and it won’t run off your sandwich.

Place in a Panini maker and cook until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

Makes 1 large sandwich!

I love sandwiches because you can put whatever you like on it.  It’s quick, filling and so good!  I’m thinking of sandwiches now!  Now I’m thinking of Joey Tribbiani with his love for sandwiches.

Quote from Friends:

Chandler: [Sniffs] This sandwich does smell good…
Joey: Did I tell you to smell my sandwich?!
Chandler: I can`t smell your sandwich??
Joey: NO! Half of the taste is in the smell!! You sucking up all the taste units!
Chandler: OK, I`ll give them back [Exhales]

Lol!

QUESTION:  Do you like sandwiches?  If so what’s your favorite??

Have a wonderful day!  Now time to go make a sandwich!!  🙂

    I have been so wanting to buy that speculoos butter…but have resisted because I know there’s a real and serious danger that I won’t be able to stop eating it once I get my hands on it! If you post a cookie recipe that uses it though, I might have to buy it…

    I do love sandwiches. A good grilled cheese is all I really need!

      I’m making cookies tomorrow with the speculoos butter. I’ll be thinking of you! That stuff is really dangerous, I wouldn’t buy it!! It’s not really to healthy either, but it so good!

    Oh, YUM! I have heard about the Biscoff butter, but not the speculoos variety! I am very afraid I’d love both! And your sandwich looks darn tasty, too…and I love the idea of removing some of the bread 🙂

    Wow – that is one delicious looking sandwich! I understand about paying cash and how you really have to think about your presents…Honey Bunny and I only spend $100 on each other for Christmas. When you’re limited, you don’t buy a bunch of junk…you really THINK about what you buy!

Hey, hey, hey happy Tuesday! The days are getting Hey, hey, hey happy Tuesday! The days are getting longer and Spring will be here before we know it. #sponsored I can’t wait! Spring is my favorite season!
🌸
I’m sharing with you my new Yuri 4 piece patio set that I got from RST Brands. I love the clean lines and it’s made with certified eucalyptus wood. Plus it is so comfortable to sit on.
🌸
The beautiful light blue cushions are covered in a durable olefin fabric that is weather resistant. Plus the cushions have zippers, so you can wash the cushion covers. That’s a big plus, considering Sampson loves to sit on furniture.
🌸
I can’t wait to decorate my Yuri 4 piece seating set with throws, pillows and of course plants. When the weather warms up, I’ll take you along with me when I decorate.
🌸
Are you looking forward to Spring?

Happy Monday! As usual the weekend flew by, but I’m happy that I got some things done. I’m really trying to do some purge and organize. Slowly moving at it, one day at a time.
💕
I’m sharing with you my Valentines Day tiered tray. If you notice, I finally got a new tiered tray.  Woohoo, the tiered tray is from @paperadpallet. I’m so happy to ditch my old white one. It was so crooked that I had to put a towel under to make it straight. I now finally have a straight tiered tray.
💕
I’ve been good and I still haven’t gone shopping, but after putting this tray together, I realize I don’t own any wooden hearts. I really would like some white and pink ones. I could do a diy, I don’t think that’s considered buying home decor?
💕
How was your weekend?

Hello Thursday! Hope your week is going well. So f Hello Thursday! Hope your week is going well. So far so good over here. I’ve been doing well not shopping. I had to have Target deliver groceries yesterday because I was afraid to go in that store. I have no control. 23 more days to go for my 30 day no buying home decor challenge.
🌿
I’m slowly working on refreshing my home after Christmas. I worked on this vignette in my living room. It’s really hard shopping my home. I grabbed stuff in just about every room to make this vignette.
🌿
I’m sticking with the whites and greens and added the blue vase to go with my pillow in the background. I added another faux fern, I didn’t realize how many I have floating around.
🌿
The pot the fern is in was a pot that my spider plant was in that I got from Trader Joe’s. I told you I really shopped around my home. But it’s kind of fun using things I already have.
🌿
Do you like shopping your own home?

Hello Wednesday! Half way through the first week b Hello Wednesday! Half way through the first week back, we can do it. I need to pump myself up. 😂 All in all it’s not to bad of a work week.
🌿
Last week I worked on changing my console table around. I wanted to keep it light and simple and of course add my greenery.
🌿
I just love adding pops of greenery, real or faux everywhere. Plants truly make me happy. The faux fern you see here is from Target. It’s part of the Studio McGee collection. I can’t get over how real it looks.
🌿
For ferns, I always have to get faux. I don’t have very good luck with real ones. It’s just to dry here. I have to water them everyday and if you miss a day, they die. So faux it will be.
🌿
What’s your favorite plant?

Hello and happy Tuesday! Not too much going on ove Hello and happy Tuesday! Not too much going on over here. Just trying to get back into the swing of things. I was so tired after work yesterday.
🌸
I’m slowly decorating my home for this season, though winter is hard for me. After Christmas, I love pastels and flowers. I think the winter season is a little more difficult to decorate because we don’t get snow. It’s hard to have flocked trees and sunshine.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my centerpiece on my dining room table. I just love it so much!  It’s kind of cozy and warm. Plus it has flowers! I’m still working on decorating the rest of the dining room. I hope to complete it by the weekend so I can share it with you.
🌸
How’s the weather where you live?

Monday again? Ugh! Back to work today. I have enjo Monday again? Ugh! Back to work today. I have enjoyed my two weeks off and boy it is going to be hard getting back in the swing of things. At least I can roll out of my bed and go straight to my computer.
💕
Notice something different in my bedroom? I have a new sign above my bed. It took two years and a lot of begging to get my husband to hang something above my bed. It did cost me a trip to Olive Garden. lol
💕
My new farmhouse sign is from @krumpetshomedecor. I love just it, and thought it was perfect for the bedroom. I find the words so beautiful. Swipe to see a close up.
💕
The sign is slightly white wash and the word “love” is raised lettering. Plus the sign is two sided. I’ll show you the other side in stories today.
💕
Today Krumpets Home Decor is launching there new Valentines decor and let me tell you it is gorgeous!! I saw some fun pieces for a tiered tray and more signs. So much to choose from.

Happy Sunday! Not to much going on here. I finally Happy Sunday! Not to much going on here. I finally packed up my Christmas and slowly redecorating my house for winter/spring.
🌿
For some reason, when Christmas is over I feel the need to start to decorate for Spring. I just love the light, bright feeling.
🌿
My first post of the New Year has to be flowers. I’m sharing this pretty bouquet that I bought from Trader Joe’s.
🌿
Trader Joe’s has tulips already, which means peonies will be soon to follow. I can’t wait for flower season to come full bloom.

Are you going to be decorating for Valentine’s Day?

Happy New Years Eve! I can’t believe it’s the Happy New Years Eve! I can’t believe it’s the last day of the year and what a year it’s been. Though I’ve had some wonderful blessings this year.
🥂
I’m sharing with you my top 9 photos of 2020. Thank you so much for all your wonderful comments, likes and saves. I’ve had so much fun on IG this year. I’ve made so many new friends, I’ve been inspired by you and I feel like I have grown so much just by being here with you.
🥂
You don’t even know how much I appreciate each and everyone of you. You are truly inspiring.  I am looking so forward to seeing what is in store in 2021.
🥂
If you followed my stories yesterday, I am doing a 30 day challenge starting on January 1st. The challenge is not being able to buy any home decor. So if you are joining me, shop today. It’s the last day to shop.
🥂
I plan on shopping my home, and being creative with what I have. When lockdown started, I saved so much money, not being able to leave my home. I was so proud of myself. Plus, I can save some money for spring and Easter decor.
🥂
Let me know if you are joining me? I need a support system. Target did me in this week, and I must stay away.  Once I get the shopping bug, I can’t stop.
🥂
I’m taking the next couple of days off from IG to get my house organized. I will be on stories to show my progress. Happy New Years! Cheers to a wonderful 2021.

I’m sharing with you my last room that has Christmas still left in it. I’ll probably change it up later this week or next. I’m really trying to focus on my kitchen and living room.
