INGREDIENTS
2 slices Whole Wheat Bread
4 ounces Extra-Firm Tofu
1 ounce Fresh Mozzarella
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper, sliced
1/4 medium Zucchini, sliced
1/4 medium Eggplant, sliced
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Hummus
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Toss the sliced red bell pepper, zucchini, and eggplant with the olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables are roasting, press the extra-firm tofu to remove excess moisture, then slice it into 1/4-inch pieces. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and lightly grill in a non-stick pan or on a grill pan until golden on both sides.
Lightly toast the whole wheat bread slices. Spread a thin layer of hummus on one side of each slice.
Assemble the panini by layering the roasted vegetables, grilled tofu, fresh spinach, and a slice of mozzarella on one of the hummus-spread bread slices. Top with the second slice, hummus side down.
Press the sandwich in a panini press or a grill pan with a heavy lid, grilling for 3-4 minutes on each side until the cheese begins to melt and the bread is crispy.
Remove from heat, slice in half, and serve warm.
