We all work hard during the week! Most days I’m up and out quickly, so when I have a quiet morning without work or errands to run, it’s a real luxury. Nothing is better than relaxing with a long quiet cup of coffee, reading the newspaper ( on my ipad of course) and enjoying breakfast. This breakfast panini is perfect for one of these mornings. My favorite type of recipe is one with small effort and big enjoyment. If you don’t have a panini press you can use a a skillet and cover. Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, and cook your sandwich for a couple minutes on each side, pressing it down  with the skillet cover making full contact with the hot pan.

From by the bay, wishing you relaxing food memories!
