SUGGESTED SANDWICHES:
Sandwich fillings can be as limitless as your personal taste and imagination. You may create your own versions of
traditional favorites (childhood or diner comfort foods) or combine favorite ingredients to make your own “classics”.
To assemble sandwiches, lightly coat one side of each slice of bread (or the outside of a roll, pita loaf or English muf-
fin) with butter, margarine or olive oil. Lay 2 slices of bread, coated side down, on work surface. Assemble sandwiches
in layers and top with remaining bread, coated side up. Place on preheated Sandwich Grill. Use firm pressure to close
lid; lock and cook. Green indicator light will go off and red light will come on (this may not happen immediately).
When green indicator light comes on again, sandwich is cooked.
Add 15-30 seconds additional cooking time if a toastier sandwich is preferred. Remove sandwiches using a heatproof
plastic spatula. Let sandwiches rest for 2-3 minutes, then cut and serve.
You may even make a French toast batter (without vanilla) and dip the sandwiches in it before grilling to make
“croque monsieurs.”
