Turkey/ Cranberry/ Dressing Panini

Manami's Note:

After the ball - when it is quiet again - and we would like another taste of the turkey - try one of these sandwiches! They are great, taken from NapaStyle Inc. & then tweaked. When I posted the recipe had to guess at quantites, so please adjust to your own palette.

A delicious way to visit Thanksgiving dinner on a bun. I did not use all the butter that was called for. I just put a thin coating on the buns. I used Sourdough Hamburger Buns for the bun and the George Forman grill as a panini press. I was fortunate enough to have fresh sage.

I have made a similar sandwich before using cranberry stuffing. It is a good sandwich...I wouldn't call it my favourite though!

I have made this before without the sage (don't like it) and the sandwich was great!!!
