Steps (6)

1

Wash the peppers, zucchini, squash and mushrooms and carefully slice peppers and mushrooms into strips and zucchini and squash on the diagonal.
2

Place all of the sliced vegetables on a foil-covered cookie sheet and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Broil the peppers, zucchini, squash, mushrooms and onions on the middle rack for about 15 minutes.
3

Heat your contact grill. If you don’t have one, you can use a skillet.
4

Spread Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® bottled dressing* on the bread and layer on the vegetables of your choice. Top with mozzarella cheese and cover with top slice of bread.
5

Coat the grill (or skillet) with non-stick cooking spray. Place the sandwich on the grill and close the cover for about 3-4 minutes.
6

If you’re using a skillet, place the panini in it and put a smaller heavy skillet on top of the sandwich, pressing the bread together and making an authentic panini. Wait 2 minutes, then turn the sandwich so the other side gets toasty too.
