This is a delicious as well as healthy sandwich. I have used corn kernels, baby spinach, and cottage cheese (paneer) to make this sandwich. You can also add some grated mozzarella cheese before you grill the sandwich. If you like spicy food, add more chilies as this is a mild preparation….

Tip :

If you do not eat onions, make the filling without onions; it tastes equally good.

I have used whole wheat bread for the preparation of sandwich.

If you do not find baby spinach use the regular spinach. In that case do not forget to cut the spinach after washing.
