Veggie Ciabatta


I made a truly yummy dinner and I just wanted to share the recipe for ya'll.

Veggie Panini

Ciabatta bread from the bread guys at the market
3 baby first squashes (about 5 inches big)
fresh green onions
fresh garlic (from the garden ;o)
tomatoes
fetta cheese
mixed spices ( rosemary, thyme, chives, oregano, onions)
Olive oil


Slice up the squash into strips or rings, whatever. Place in a dish to marinate with some olive oil and TONS of spices. Get really heavy handed with the spices since squash have little of there own flavor. Marinate for I don't know, 20 minutes *ish* Now place in a grill basket or on aluminum foil and grill on BBQ until tender and starting to slightly darken.

Cut ciabatta in half length wise, Place a BIG sprinkling of chives and onions (you can cook first if you prefer them softened) Lay the cooked squash on top sprinkle with fetta cheese, top with thinly sliced tomatoes and then add more fetta just because you can! Drizzle with the olive oil and spices left over from marinating the squash.

Place (carefully) your towering creation onto the BBQ on low! I placed this creation on the top shelf of the BBQ so it was further away from the flames. Close the lid and grill for like 10 minutes, the bottom should be crispy maybe slightly brown and the cheese melted.

Remove from BBQ cut into squares, give thanks to the farmers who grew and made this lovely thing for you, now ENJOY!
