I always forget to pull meat out of the freezer for my husband before I go to work, so this invention came to me on a late Monday when I needed something yummy in a hurry. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 minced garlic clove (i used the kind in the jar) |
1/4 cup diced sweet onion |
2 small diced white button mushrooms |
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste |
6 ounces water |
1 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon ground oregano |
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram |
salt and pepper (to taste) |
4 slices sourdough bread |
2 slices mozzarella cheese |
1/2 cup diced pepperoni |
1/4 cup italian cheese blend |
Directions:
1. For sauce:.
2. Heat oil in small saucepan.
3. Add garlic, onions, and mushrooms.
4. Saute until soft.
5. Stir in tomato paste and water.
6. Add Italian seasoning, oregano, marjoram, salt, and pepper.
7. Stir and Simmer for about 15 minutes or until flavors have combined.
8. Spread sauce on all 4 slices of bread.
9. On 2 slices, add mozzarella and pepperoni to cover.
10. Sprinkle mixed cheese to cover pepperoni.
11. Top with the other 2 sourdough slices.
12. Heat sandwiches until cheese is melted and bread is toasty.
13. For extra toasty bread, I put the bread in a toaster on a light setting before cooking.
14. To heat the sandwiches you can use stove top, baking, panini press, or (as I did) grill them on the foreman :).
