FIG, CARAMELIZED ONION AND GOAT CHEESE PANINI
A taste of this sandwich whisks you to the Italian countryside. It combines sweet honey, dried figs, tangy goat cheese, nutty Asiago and salty prosciutto. We often pack it in our picnic basket for summer or fall outings. -Maria Brennan, Middlebury, Connecticut
