Original Recipe Yield 2 panini
 

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs

  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 teaspoons butter, room temperature
  • 4 slices whole wheat or white bread
  • 4 slices fully-cooked bacon
  • 4 slices tomato
  • 2 slices Swiss cheese

Directions

  1. Heat panini press according to manufacturer's directions. Beat eggs, water, salt and pepper in microwave-safe bowl until blended. Microwave on High 45 seconds; stir. Microwave until eggs are almost set, 30 to 45 seconds longer.
