Bistro Apple Panini image

My family loves panini press recipes. The bacon, apple and tarragon in this recipe go together so well. If you don't have a panini maker or an indoor grill, you can easily pan-fry or broil these excellent sandwiches.-Noelle Myers, Grand Forks, North Dakota

I had a hard time finding the right type of bread for this panini. I ended up using a sourdough bread and it worked out well.

This panini was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a different type of cheese.

I'm not sure why this recipe is called a 'bistro' panini. It's more like a grilled cheese sandwich with apples. But it's still delicious!
