1. First, make the Tzatziki Sauce: Drain yogurt and grated cucumber in a cheesecloth lined colander for several hours.
2. Mix with remaining ingredients and chill.
3. Cut your Ciabatta Roll in half.
4. Spread each half with about 1-2 tablespoons of the sauce,or to taste.
5. Layer the roll with lettuce, tomato, onion, artichoke heats (if using),and olives.
6. Press cheese(s) into the cut side of the top of roll.
7. Place top half of the roll on the sandwich, cut in half and enjoy.
8. I have also made this with Basil Tomato Feta and it is also good, I would think that blue cheese or goat's cheese would be good also.

I have not tried this sandwich yet, but I have had the Panera Bread sandwich a few times now, and really love it. I can't wait to try this and see if it is as good as the original.
