Ingredients

  • ½ ripe avocado

  • ¼ cup mayonnaise

  • 2 ciabatta rolls, halved lengthwise

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided

  • 2 slices provolone cheese, divided

  • 1 cup whole fresh spinach leaves, divided

  • 4 ounces thinly sliced mesquite-smoked turkey breast, divided

  • 2 roasted red peppers, sliced into strips, divided

Directions

  1. Mash avocado and mayonnaise together in a bowl until thoroughly combined.

  2. Preheat a panini sandwich press.

  3. Brush bottom of each roll with olive oil; place onto the panini press, oiled sides down. Place 1 slice cheese, 1/2 spinach leaves, 1/2 turkey, and 1/2 sliced peppers on each roll on panini press. Spread 1/2 avocado mixture on cut surface of each top roll; place 1 top roll on each sandwich. Brush top of each roll with olive oil.

  4. Close the panini press; cook until rolls toasted and crisp, with golden brown grill marks, and the cheese has melted, 5 to 8 minutes.

Editor's Note

Instead of using a panini press, you can use a heavy cast iron skillet or griddle with a heavy weight (such as another heavy pan or even a brick wrapped in aluminum foil). Place the sandwich into the heated skillet or griddle, top with the heavy weight, and push down on the weight to press and crisp the sandwich. When the roll is toasted, flip the sandwich and press the other side.
