The bread was a bit too hard for my liking. I think I would use a softer bread next time.

This panini was a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would use less butter next time.

I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but this panini was still really good. The prosciutto and cheese were a great combination.

The pesto was a bit bland. I think I would add some more garlic and basil next time.

This was a quick and easy lunch to make. I used store-bought pesto and prosciutto, and it still turned out great.
