Uncle Sherwin's Delicious Ham Panino
"I created this recipe randomly one afternoon. I just gathered what I had and created this. I didn't expect much but it turned out delicious. There is a combination of sweet and hot flavors from the honey ham and monterrey jack cheese as well as the mini sweet peppers. This sandwich is grilled on a pan on the stove."
