I had bought paneer and bread yesterday as I had planned to make paneer sandwich for today’s breakfast.

In the morning, when I opened the fridge, the first thing that I saw was fresh mint leaves and fresh, colourful capsicums. It acted as an instant inspiration to make paneer tikka and since I had to make breakfast, I made these lovely, healthy, wholesome and yummy tikka sandwiches.

Needless to say, my family devoured the sandwiches as everyone is very fond of paneer tikkas:)
