1 pre-sliced Lender's New York Style whole grain or wheat bagel

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon oregano

Dash of sea salt

1 tablespoon pesto sauce

2 ounces of sliced cooked chicken breast

1 thin slice of red onion

1 tablespoon marinated red bell peppers, drained

1 tablespoon mushrooms, chopped

3 tablespoons part-skim mozzarella cheese, grated

1 thin slice of ripe tomato

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

4 fresh basil leaves

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Lay both slices of the bagel facedown. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle half of oregano and dash of sea salt on both pieces. Flip over and spread pesto sauce on the cut side of the bagel. Layer bottom half of bagel as follows: chicken, red onion, red pepper, mushrooms, cheese, oregano, tomato, salt, pepper and basil leaves. Place top half of bagel onto bottom half and press firmly.

Place the sandwich in a heated Panini grill and cook until cheese melts and the bagel bread is toasty brown and has grill marks. Remove, cut and serve.

Makes 1 serving.
