How
To Make Grilled Bistro Breakfast Sandwiches :
Heat
1 teaspoon butter in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat; add eggs and
scramble until set. Divide eggs between 2 slices of bread; sprinkle each with
salt and pepper. Layer bread with cheese slices, pear slices, Canadian bacon
and spinach. Top with remaining bread.
If
using a panini maker, spread remaining butter on both sides of sandwiches.
Grill according to manufacturer's directions until golden brown and grill marks
show, 6-8 minutes.
If
using an indoor grill, spread half of remaining butter on 1 side of both
sandwiches. Place buttered side down on grill; press down with a heavy skillet
or other weight. Grill over medium-high heat until golden brown and
grill-marked, 3-5 minutes. Remove weight; spread remaining butter on other side
of sandwiches. Return to grill buttered side down; replace weight. Grill until
golden brown, another 3-5 minutes.
