Little Dream Books

What do you think about catalogs?  I think some are like little dream books.  For instance, I find just about everything in the Pottery Barn catalog to be super dreamy for my house, the Nordstrom catalog is dreamy for all things fashion, and then there's the Williams-Sonoma catalog.  The little book of all things dreamy for the kitchen.

I received my dreamy kitchen book just the other day, and as I sipped some coffee and joyfully perused it, I stubbled upon some lovely recipes!  That's where today's recipe is from in fact, the Croque Monsieur Panini.





















I hadn't planned on continuing last week's French food theme into this week, but it just so happens that I am thanks to Williams-Sonoma.  In case le Coq au Vin and the Creme Brulee weren't enough for you, now you have a yummy French sandwich too.  You may also recall that back in April, I made Rach's Croque Madame.  Today, you get the masculine version of that meal...which means it's eggless.  Those funny French!

In the little dream book, this recipe is prepared on a panini press.  Yes, that would indeed be dreamy!  However, I don't own one, so I improvised with what I deemed the next best thing...the George Foreman grill.  It isn't dreamy like the panini press, but it was effective enough and fast!

If you find yourself in a lunch or dinner rut, these "paninis" are OH SO GOOD!!  Enjoy!!

You're fun! When you said you didn't have a panini press and improvised, I thought you were going to say you used a steam iron. ;o)
