Easy in the George Forman, but I found the mustard and balsamic vinegar to be distracting. I prefer just the ham, tomato, cheese and basil.

Great sandwich! I used sourdough bread instead of ciabatta. Instead of putting the vinegar on the bread I marinaded the tomatoes a few minutes in the balsamic before putting on the sandwich. Unfortunately we didn't have any cherry peppers but it was great the way it was! Thanks Redsie for a great lunch!

Eye-catching sandwich! We enjoyed all the different textures and flavors but found the basil just a little overpowering. I used basil from my garden and they were giant leaves so maybe that was my problem. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
