Grilled Cuban Bunini Sandwich image

They say the key to a good Cuban sandwich is soft bread; we say Ball Park® Buns fit the bill. If you don't have a panini press, make your sandwich in a pan on the stove, using the lid for a press.

I'm not a big fan of pickles, so I left them out of my sandwich. It was still delicious.
