I made this yummy treat for my breakfast this morning. Makes a great snack or lunch and it was super easy and delicious! Kids would love it for a snack too!

Here's what you need:
1 flour tortilla
2 Tablespoons of Peanut Butter
1 medium banana
Cinnamon & Sugar

Place peanut butter all over the tortilla. Place the whole banana on the peanut butter then sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on top! Slice up into bite sizes and place tooth picks on top :) You have just made yummy protein filled sushi!

The Greek Sandwich

Here is another panini sandwich, I just love them! However, this Greek one is my absolute favorite! This is the best sandwich on this earth! Definitely my favorite lunch or dinner to have! There is no other restaurant that makes a panini this good. It's down right amazing and mouth watering! No joke... Must try!


Ingredients:
2 slices of Sourdough Bread
1 1/2 tablespoons Brianas Asiago Caesar Dressing (Must have)
2-3 slices of Ham, Turkey or 2.5 ounces of Chicken (whatever is on hand)
2 Artichoke Hearts sliced
8-9 Pieces of Sun-dried Tomatoes
Spinach
Red Onion
1 tablespoon or more of Feta cheese
Pepperoncinis
1 slice of Pepper-Jack Cheese (if desired)
Italian Seasoning sprinkles

Directions:
Spread dressing evenly on the bread. The next part is simple...add all the ingredients above to the sandwich,  then place it in the panini grill for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted. I never really measure out all the ingredients, I just put what looks right to me on the sandwich. These measurements are just guidelines :)


*Notes*
-If you don't have sourdough bread, that's totally fine! You can use french bread, white bread, brown bread, or anything you have on hand. I've just found that sourdough is the best!
-For the meat, I usually do whatever my mom has in the fridge, sometimes it's just ham and sometimes chicken. Any meat is good in this!
-Toppings. You don't have to have all these toppings just to make the sandwich. If you don't have one ingredient, that's totally fine, still make it! You can also add black olives or any topping you think would be good on it :)

Turkey Bacon Ranch Panini

I love Paninis and this is a good one I made for my dad today, he LOVED it! It's loaded with yummy meats and has tons of flavor!

Ingredients:
2 slices of sourdough bread or French Bread
1 1/2 tablespoons ranch
2 slices of ham
2 slices of Turkey
2 Tablespoons Bacon Crumbles
1 slice of Swiss Cheese
Feta Cheese
Italian Seasoning

Directions:
Spread the ranch dressing on the 2 slices of bread. Place all the meat of the bread. Sprinkle as much feta as desired (I like about 1-1 1/2 TBLS) over meat. Then place Swiss cheese over feta and sprinkle Italian seasoning on top. Place in a panini grill for about 2 mins or until bread is golden brown and cheese has melted. Enjoy!

Fresh Wrap- Perfect for school lunch


Fresh Wrap

Here’s an AMAZING lunch I pack for school almost every day, I just can’t get enough of it! It’s definitely one of my favorite lunches for school and outside of school!It's so full of flavor and the cucumbers make it so good and crunchy.



What you need:
Flour Tortilla
Laughing Cow Creamy Swiss Wedge
Cucumber
Spinach
Red Onion
Feta
Mushrooms
Pepperoncinis
Black Olives
Briannas Caesar Dressing
And whatever else you think would be yummy on it!

Instructions:
Spread Laughing Cow over tortilla. Put the cucumber and spinach on first, then everything else. If you are packing it for school or work, make sure and put about 1 Tablespoon or more of dressing in a small bag so you can drizzle it on top of the wrap before you eat it…we don’t want it getting soggy! If you aren't packing it, go ahead and pour the dressing on top right before you eat it. J The dressing makes it, so make sure you got it!

Love on a Pita!


Presenting the BEST EVER Pita!
This is probably one of my favorite lunches/dinner EVER! Its soooooo delicious…it’s actually mouth watering! I love to make this on a flat bread or on sourdough bread as a panini! Here’s the secret to this amazing sandwich…it’s the dressing! It’s to die for. Go make this pita right away! Enjoy  


Here's what you need to make this: 



-Flat bread (I like the Greek Pita Flat Bread)
-Brianas Asiago Caesar Dressing (This is a MUST)
-Spinach
-Artichoke hearts
-Pepperoncinis 
-Sun dried tomatoes
-Black olives
-Chicken
-Feta cheese
-Red onion
-Pepper jack cheese
-Italian seasoning

Instructions:
Set oven on Broil at 450*. Place flat bread on a cooking sheet. Put about 1-2 TBL (depending on how much you like) of Caesar dressing on flat bread and add all the toppings! After toppings are added, sprinkle some Italian Seasoning on top. (FYI I always put spinach on after the dressing, then pile everything on top.) My flat bread is always different depending on the ingredients we have, but any variation of these ingredients is AMAZING! Broil for about 2 mins. or until cheese has melted and fold it up and enjoy!
