Savor a delicious panini featuring herb-roasted vegetables, tender chickpeas, and melted low-fat mozzarella, all elevated with a vibrant basil pesto. This balanced creation delivers satisfying textures and flavors, making it a perfect option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
2 slices Whole Grain Panini Bread (120g)
1.5 oz Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese (42g)
1/3 cup Cooked Chickpeas (53g)
1/2 cup Roasted Mixed Vegetables (75g)
1 tbsp Fresh Basil Pesto (15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Toss chopped red bell pepper, zucchini, and eggplant with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them on the baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes until tender and lightly charred.
Meanwhile, mash the cooked chickpeas slightly in a bowl and mix in a pinch of salt and pepper.
Lightly toast the slices of whole grain panini bread on a pan or griddle until just crisped.
Spread a thin layer of fresh basil pesto on one side of each bread slice.
Layer on the roasted vegetables, mashed chickpeas, and evenly distribute the low-fat mozzarella cheese over the vegetables.
Assemble the sandwich, press lightly, and if desired, return the panini to the panini press or grill for 3-4 minutes to melt the cheese and help the flavors meld.
Slice in half and serve warm.
