Super Grilled "cuban" Midnight Sandwich
""This sandwich is called a 'Media Noche' which translates to 'Midnight.' It is not exactly a "traditional" Cuban sandwich, for those of you fortunate to have had one, but this one makes a wonderful dinner sandwich because it is served hot. A nice side dish is black bean soup or black beans and rice, and plantain chips. COOKS NOTE: Bust out your Foreman Grill, or Panini Press!
Please note: this is an adopted recipe and I hope to make it soonest. If you make it before I do, I would appreciate feedback, Thanks ! ZWT REGION: Cuba."

I made these last night and they were really delicious, we were licking our fingers. I did add some salami slices to the meat. -
This was a delicious sandwich..made it in my Panini press... Such a fast sandwich to put together too...I made it in the morning and wrapped in plastic wrap and brought to work to heat up in Panini press. I cut the recipe in half since we were only 2....but I also cut back on the mayo, Italian dressing... 1/2 cup is way too much for just 2 hoagies..so just eyeballed it and it was about 1/4 amount of the full recipe...It was a very yummy sandwich and very filling....just had a great salad on the side Recipe #407949 . Both went so well together. The pickle added a very nice crunch to the sandwich. Will be making this one again...thanks for sharing your recipe kiwidutch -
This makes one big fat yummy sandwich...I really enjoyed this (but minus the pickle-sorry, just can't do it!!).<br/>The mayo/dressing/mustard combo is very tasty and really compliments the ham,turkey and cheese.<br/>Delicious!!<br/>Thanks kiwi-made for PRMR. -
Very good sandwich! I used butter instead of olive oil (who doesn't like butter!) and they came out great. I have made these twice already in a week and that is rare. The second time I made with regular white sandwhich and wheat bread because I was out of hogie rolls and they came out really good also. Thanks for posting! -
