Paninis for dinner? I am making a Reuben Dip for work tomorrow so I bought everything I needed for it. I figured instead of buying something separate for dinner tonight I would just get some bread and extra corned beef and make paninia for dinner. I got a panini maker a few months ago as a wedding gift, but I have yet to use it. Any expert panini makers out there? I plan on using the following: Corned Beef Swiss Cheese Thousand Island dressing Sourdough Bread Maybe sauerkraut (I personally can't stand the stuff but my husband wants it) So my question is: How long should I cook it on the press for? Is there a certain temp I should use? Oh and if anyone wants a delicious recipe for a Ruben dip feel free to e-mail me!

Do men ever get to marry amateur gourmet chefs? Do men ever get to marry women who are amazing at cooking.Those who can make BBQ brisket, cocktail, any type of meat, sandwiches/paninis, steaks, fish/chicken dishes and desserts such as creme brulee/tiramisu/cheesecake/chocolate mousse. The type of person whomakesfresh jams, cream cheeses and breads. I think women get these type of men more often. Even if the man is the breadwinner he cooks. BUT if you look at all food blogs 95% of the owners and responders and one posting recipes and pictures are women not men. How does this match up?

Why does everyone keep referring to Italian sandwiches as "a panini" or "paninis"? Anyone know why the Italian word for sandwiches is so badly butchered in America? Here, the word is treated as a singular form; thus, you get people ordering "a panini" at restaurants, or talking about the "great paninis" they had somewhere. Even so-called Italian restaurants, who should have done at least 5 minutes' worth of research on the subject, make this mistake. Anyone who has taken so much as a day or two worth of Italian language courses (or has cracked open an Italian dictionary) knows that the word "panini" is PLURAL and is translated as "sandwiches." The "i" at the end is the common indicator for a plural word in Italian. The singular form for sandwich is "panino." So when you say "a panini," you are, in effect, saying "a sandwiches." To put an English plural "s" on the end of "panini" makes it even more nonsensical. "Sandwicheses?" Honestly. Can anyone explain who is responsible for this error that has now, sadly, become very common?

Are Progresso soups and / or the Lean Cuisine Paninis healthy lunch options? Sine having surgery to have my gallbladder removed, I've been trying to eat better by eating mostly homecooked meals, but sometimes I don't have time or don't feel like cooking so I am looking for some heathy convevience food options. I really would like to avoid any takeout food. I'm looking for some good healthy options I can buy at the grocery store. Something already prepared for me that I can just heat and eat. I was thinking maybe Lean Cuisine dinners - the paninis look good, and maybe getting some Progresso soups. These foods I'm looking to get would be for lunch as this is when I am rushing trying to make myself something quick but healthy to eat (I have a newborn baby and sometimes I'll just grab whatever is on hand to eat). Would those things I mentioned above be good healthy options for lunch foods or what would be a better choice? (I have no problem with dinner as this is the time hubby comes home from work and he will watch the baby while I make a home cooked dinner)
