Panino


Today for lunch I procured a baguette, prosciutto crudo, and fresh mozzarella (only a step off from the burrata that is creamily good). I split the baguette open, slathered on some olive tapenade and added the goodies above, along with a few tomato slices, to create a nice hearty sandwich (panino), reminscent of Italy's finest. It's not quite the same as eating a sandwich in Italy, but almost as good....

That looks delicious!

I'll just point out that this so-called "Panino" can't hold a candle to the delicious AND microwaveable Steuffers Corner Bistro panini.

By the way, my blog is the number 2 hit if you Google "steuffers"!

Plugging yourself again, Shane! You DID come up at number 2--I only wonder if you meant to misspell Stouffer's?

Check out this link to Nutrition Action's review of the Corner Bistro flatbread, aka "fatbread"--a distant cousin to the panini.

Regardless of our making fun of it, Stouffer's clearly did an excellent job of marketing that sandwich!
