Bruschetta Sandwich

4 sandwich thins, Costco*
4 ounces fresh mozzarella, roughly chopped
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup red onion, chopped

*(Sourdough or ciabatta make a great substitution).




Heat up your Panini press. If you don't have one, you should get one! (Have I said that before? Probably) Meanwhile, if you must make do without, use two fry pans - one to put the sandwiches in and another, one size smaller, to place on top of the sandwiches to weight down for better browning.

Combine all ingredients and divide as stuffing between the four sandwiches. Lightly oil outsides of sandwiches and grill until crispy, approximately 5 minutes.

These "sandwich thins" are something new I found at Costco. They are lovely in that you can have a sandwich without feeling all bread-bloated...Just the right amount of bread - - cuz it's really hard to go without completely but let's be realistic, sometimes wraps just aren't enough!
