Guest guest Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 Hi to Everyone! Thanks for having me here in the group and a happy new year to all! I've recently switched to a vegetarian diet and thought this sounded like a good place to get tips and suggestions from those who have been on this path for a long time, as well as from those who may be still struggling a little like me (LOL)! I am a 53 year old diabetic (on oral medication) and I feel sure that this change will help me to get and keep better control of my blood glucose levels. The following recipe is one that my husband and I enjoy - hope you'll like it as well! Blessings! Cat ************************************************************************\ * ~GREEK STYLE PANINI~ 2, 10 oz. packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese 6 French or kaiser rolls, cut in half 2 jarred roasted red peppers, each one cut into 3 strips 3/4 cup prepared hummus Combine spinach and feta cheese in bowl. Spread 1/3 cup mixture over bottom half of each roll, and top each with red pepper strip. Spread hummus on top halves of rolls. Heat skillet over medium-high heat, or preheat countertop grill. Spray sandwiches with cooking spray. Set 2 sandwiches in pan, and top with saucepan weighed down with 2 cans. Cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Or press 5 minutes total in countertop grill. Repeat with remaining sandwiches. Makes 6 servings. Note: We make these in a big iron skillet and weight them down with a second smaller one with a big can sittting in it - works great!
