veggie panini

Pressed meatless lunch

A veggie panini is a grilled sandwich made with vegetables—typically roasted peppers, zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes, or spinach—pressed between slices of Italian bread.

The sandwich is heated in a ridged press that leaves characteristic grill marks and melts any cheese.

I grabbed a veggie panini from the café for lunch.
