Dear Catherine, I almost missed this one, sorry....I love a good Panini sandwich. Just like you said it is pure comfort food for sure. I think your sandwich is awesome, great flavors and I love the cheese, can't make a panini without good cheese. I prefer a good Gruyere cheese, some people use cheddar or even mozzarella, but with something like this I love the flavor of the Gruyere. I also think I would enjoy the chutney with it as well. Great post and a nice homemade sandwich. Have a blessed Thursday! Dottie 🙂
