Breakfast Panini With Potatoes and Greens


What You'll Need
2 slices whole grain bread
Leftover mashed potatoes
Leftover steamed greens
Condiments of choice

How to Make It
1 Heat either a panini press or a dry frying pan/grill over medium heat.
2 Assemble the sandwich. First, spread condiments on each slice of bread (such as mustard, hot sauce, or hummus). Then, pile on mashed potatoes and steamed greens.
3 Sandwich together the two halves, and carefully place onto the surface of the hot panini press or in a hot frying pan.
4 If using a panini press, close the lid and allow to grill for 5 or 6 minutes. If using a frying pan, press down on the top of the sandwich with a large spatula or heavy pan for 2 to 3 minutes per side.
5 Once the sandwich is grilled, remove from heat. Slice panini in half and enjoy!
