Ingredients

  • 4 regular-size pitas
  • cup 1/2
  • 1 jar (12 oz) roasted red peppers, well-drained
  • 8 oz shredded part-skim mozzarella
  • 4 1/2-in.-thick slices onion
  • Nonstick spray
  • 1 bag (5 oz) baby arugula salad
  • 1 large tomato, cut in wedges
  • 3 Tbsp reduced-fat balsamic vinaigrette (such as Newman's Own Lighten Up)

Cooking Instructions

Heat a stovetop ridged grill pan or outdoor grill.

Meanwhile make panini: For each, split 1 pita and spread the rough side of a half with 2 Tbsp pesto. Top with 1/4 of the peppers and 1/2 cup cheese. Cover with the other half of the pita, smooth side up.

Lightly coat both sides of panini and onion slices with nonstick spray. Grill 4 to 5 minutes, turning once or twice, until cheese melts and onion slices are charred and crisp-tender.

Meanwhile toss arugula, tomato and dressing in a large bowl. Stir in charred onion. Serve with panini.
