Instructions

Try these handy tips!
- Use grilled zucchini (for extra flavour) instead of cucumber when in season.
- For even more heart-healthy fats, try adding some sliced avocado.
- Save some time by using store bought hummus instead of making your own.
- Don’t have a panini press? No worries! Use a non-stick frying pan and fry just like you would for a grilled cheese. Cover the outside of both slices with non-dairy buttery spread and fry for a few minutes on each side or until you get the crispy golden-brown texture you desire.
- For a more Mediterranean-inspired flavour, brush lightly with extra virgin olive oil before frying.
