This panini is a delicious and convenient twist on the classic pizza and is perfect for a quick lunch. We used small ciabatta bread, but you can also get a larger one and cut it into smaller pieces. For the base, we used a delicious vegan red pesto and then topped it with our favourite pizza toppings.

I have made this sandwich multiple times and it turns out delicious every single time. Love this recipe

I really liked this one. Made the pesto to go with it as well. It just wouldn’t have been the same with a store-bought pesto. That pesto is just mmm! Thanks for another great recipe that the whole family loved!

Yayy so happy to hear, B - thanks a bunch 🤗✨

Pesto in toasted sandwiches/paninis is always next level and this recipe didn't disappoint! I loved the combination of the veggies, herbs and cheese with the vegan pesto. Such a winner!

Woohoo! So happy to hear, Charlotte, thank you 🤗

I don't have a grill so I just put it in my toaster oven. D. LISH. OUS. Super duper easy to make and I did also make the pesto recipe that goes with it and it totally makes the panini come together!! Thank you!

A lovely idea to use the toaster oven, Lorena, thank you 😃

A bit long to make for a family of 5, but really delicious. My sons loved it and keep asking for more :)

This was delicious! Good to make a quick lunch. My grocery store didn’t have basil so I used arugula dressed with lemon juice instead. It was great but I will make it again with the basil. Thank you PUL Team !!

Yayy we're so happy to hear, Holley! Thank YOU 😊

Amazing! Made my own vegan mozzarella, got some fresh basil from the neighbor, it was the perfect sandwich. Didn’t grill it as I don’t have a panini press and I made the bread from scratch, so it was still warm😋

Mmm bread from scratch sounds delicious! Thank you, Kendra 😃

The third receptie I am making from your app and once again amazing! You are doing such wonderful job🥳 I love what your are doing for the world; making sustainable recepies accessible to the people who would like to live more consciously ❤️ cheers to the PUL team!

Woohoo! We're so happy you're enjoyed the recipes on the app, Parnian - there are plenty more to come 😃

Another amazing recipe! The red pesto sauce was sooo good! So thankful for Sadia and her team for creating this brilliant app! My husband and I love cooking and baking together but were missing some variety in our meals. Since we got the app, we’ve tried out so many new recipes and they are all stellar. We look forward to cooking even after a long day of work, and it’s been making us really happy!

Thanks so much Sadia and team! Xx

Aw we are so honoured to hear, Charmi, it means so much 🥹💛 Excited to continue this culinary adventure together!

I don’t normally care too much about calories, but it says one serving of this has almost a thousand calories. It doesn’t sound right…

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 14, 2023, 1:13 a.m.

Hey Noomi, one serving was originally two panini's but we see how this is confusing! We've adjusted it to be one panini per serving now. The calories can vary depending on the type of bread and brand of pesto used though 😊

Delicious!
