Light Summer Eatin’: Nectarine, Goat Cheese & Spinach Panini

panini

Hey, look, finally — a new post! This was a recent light dinner where I basically surveyed the kitchen and came up with a dinner based on what I found. A nectarine (pilfered from jwa’s breakfast fruit stash), some goat cheese, spinach, dried tarragon and some balsamic vinegar. Oh and also some sourdough bread. The result was a very summery and tasty grilled sandwich.

Nectarine, Goat Cheese & Spinach Panini
4 – 6 tbsp goat cheese
1 nectarine, washed and sliced
1 cup loosely packed, fresh spinach
1/4 tsp dried tarragon
salt & pepper
1/2 tsp balsamic vinegar
4 slices sourdough bread
olive oil
Other equipment: a grill pan and something heavy (a cast iron skillet, a foil wrapped brick, etc…)

First, start by spreading about 2-3 tablespoons of goat cheese on two of the slices of bread. Divide the dried tarragon between the two by sprinkling it on top of the cheese.
