Click on each recipe that you decide to use, print yourself out a text file so that you don’t have to print all the pictures and extras, and create a shopping list based upon the layout of your grocery store.

The Tomato Panini is scrumptious! I like to drizzle a little balsamic vinegar on as well.
Oh yeah…love that tangy taste!
OK, you two have my mouth watering! I love paninis. I’ll have to give the tomato panini a try, and some of the others too:)
