Panino With Sausage, Scamorza, Sun-Dried Tomatoes & Broccoli Rabe


When I see a van selling panini (sandwiches) that is parked within my access, smell the odors of salsicce (sausages) grilling and lunchtime is almost around, I have to stride over and get a sandwich myself amongst the men who usually fill up the place.  There, you are sure to bite into a super panino with salsiccia and broccoli rabe or whatever trimmings you want them to put.  All I can say is that the sandwiches are usually very good. 


I like putting together these ingredients for a panino.  It's my favorite and I never get tired of eating it.  When I make these for lunch, it's party time for the kids. Oh, how they love these too! They're very filling and so delicious with all these flavors complementing each other with every single bite.  

 I hope you're all having a good Palm Sunday!   

Buona Domenica delle Palme!
