I really loved the flavors of this. My husband was not as big of a fan, but I thought it was really tasty. I will say, for how many calories/how much fat was in it, it wasn't terribly filling. I will definitely make again (and eat my husband's share)! If you're not worried about calories, double he filling!
Prosciutto, Fontina, and Fig Panini
If you don't have a panini grill, place sandwiches in a grill pan or large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Cover sandwiches with foil, and top with a heavy skillet. Cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
