Happy Family Day to everyone out there and Happy President's Day to my friends in the U.S. And...uh....Happy Monday to everyone else?
Today's posts are about spending time together in the kitchen and enjoying good food together at the table. This first post is the Teen's attempt to do a high-low play on the pannini. It looks fancy (sort of) but in reality it is a very simple and surprisingly delicious sandwhich.
I decided earlier this month to buy my family a Pannini Press for Valentine's Day - not romantic I know - but this thing has gotten so much use since we got it by everyone in house, especially the Teen. He has become a bit of a grilled sandwich connoisseur of late so when he asked me to blog about his Family Day breakfast I thought why not!
Brenden's Banana Nutella Delights
(Serves 2)
What you need:
4 slices good quality white sandwich bread - we like Villagio Italian-Style
5 tablespoons Nutella or other hazelnut chocolate spread
1 banana, peeled and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon milk
Preheat your Pannini Sandwich maker to 400 degrees F.
Spread the inside of each slice of bread with 1 tablespoon of Nutella. You will have 1 tablespoon left over.
Add a layer of thinly sliced banana.
Sandwich your two pieces of bread together and press together firmly using a spatula.
Toast on your Pannini-Sandwich maker for 3-4 minutes or until bread is well toasted and has fantastic grill marks. Cut on a bias.
Take your remaining tablespoon of Nutella and whisk in the milk to thin it out to a sauce consistency. Drizzle Nutella sauce on the plate and add any left over pieces of banana for decoration.
Eat and enjoy!
