Cook’s Note

This basic recipe is easily changed up with prosciutto, salami, or even turkey. This is also great as a veggie sandwich.

You can use French bread for Italian, extra-virgin olive oil for extra-light, and spreadable cheese for mayonnaise.

I recommend a George Forman grill because it eliminates the need for flipping. If you don’t have a grill pan, use a regular cast iron or nonstick skillet.
