We enjoyed these immensely for breakfast, scaled back for two, with a Granny Smith apple (always excellent cooked), Harvati and a mild honey mustard on rustic, crusty ciabatta. An excellent and eminently repeatable breakfast, brunch or anytime of day or night snack: excellent blend of flavours and also very quick to prepare. Thank you for sharing this recipe, Sharon. Made for Gimme 5.

    A different and tasty sandwich that I enjoyed for lunch today. I used a reduced fat red Leicester cheese which is a British variety very close to cheddar which I enjoy a lot. It went very well with the apple and the tang of the mustard. I did mine on my foreman grill which did a great job of heating the apple and melting the cheese without making the apple soggy. I think next time I will try this with a granny smith apple to see how that extra sharpness goes with the cheese. Made for Vegetarian/Vegan Swap.

    I made this panini for my father while I was on visit. I had a bite. It was really good even though we used sharp cheddar cheese (that's what my mother had). My father usually never likes thing that are mixed all together. But he liked this panini so much. I was kind of surprised LOL It's really good. Thanks Sharon Made for Holiday tag
