This turkey, pepperjack, and kale panini perfected with the addition of maple bacon aioli. Spread it on just about anything and you won’t be sorry.
August is National panini month. Paninis are just fancy grilled cheeses and I happen to love all forms of grilled cheese. This particular version was dreamed up when I received a jar of Stonewall Kitchen’s maple bacon aioli. Bacon makes everything better and the sweetness of the maple seemed perfect for turkey. Then I slapped on a little heat with pepperjack cheese and some healthy stuff in the form of kale. Yea it was good, so much so that I also spread it on top of a steak.
But I don’t want to be a tease so I am giving away a jar of the aioli to try out for yourself. Just use the Rafflecopter widget located at the bottom of this post. If you need more motivation, on their website they also had a recipe for hot spinach and artichoke dip with this aioli in it – that has got to be tasty. Get a jar, make it and this sandwich, and then serve it together. And then continue to spread the aioli on everything in sight.

I’d most like to try their Carmelized Onion Mustard.
I’d like to try their Key Lime and/or Lemon curd
I would definitely make several kinds of paninis with this! The product I would like to try most from Stonewall kitchen is cilantro lime dressing and the white truffle oil!
I think maple bacon aioli would be great on pan-fried pork chops.
The Pumpkin Caramel Sauce sounds so yummy and perfect for fall!
My husband is a lover of sauces and I would love to try the aiolis. The maple and bacon sounds wonderful.
Maple Bacon Aioli sounds like heaven! I would love to try this on a panini with spinach, cajun turkey, and pepperjack!
I’d put it on some lean pork! Would make such a tasty recipe. Thanks for the opportunity to try some.

I think I would most likely make your panini… :-) I looked at the site and I think I might like the Texas rub (I do live in Texas, after all), or the balsamic fig salad dressing?
The bacon aioli is intriguing but I’m not sure how I would use it. I would like to try out their blueberry honey though! And one of the preserves (or several). Oh they sell peanut butter too? Cool!
Besides the Aoili in such a great flavor I would love to try the Herbes de Provence Dipping Oil
Major yummy yum yum to this. Love that you used pepperjack cheese too, it’s a favorite for sandwiches!
I think the maple bacon aioli would be super yummy on a monte cristo!!
I think I’d like to use the bacon aioli on a panini as well–perhaps a roasted veggie and brie cheese panini
I’d make a grilled cheese sandwich with cheddar, roasted broccoli, and the aioli!!
I’d love the Garden Jubilee Wreath!

I’d love to make THIS sandwich!
