Two slices of grilled eggplant hold together melted cheese, tomato, and basil for a meat-free and gluten free sandwich recipe. Ingredients:
1 large eggplant, cut into 8 (1/2-inch-thick) diagonal slices |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 pound fresh mozzarella, cut into 8 slices |
1 large tomato, cut into 4 slices |
8 large fresh basil leaves |
salt |
black pepper |
2 lemons, halved |
Directions:
1. Brush both sides of eggplant slices with olive oil. Divide mozzarella, tomato, and basil among 4 eggplant slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; top with remaining 4 eggplant slices.
2. Place eggplant sandwiches and lemon halves on greased grill rack. Grill over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until cheese melts and eggplant is cooked through. Serve immediately with grilled lemon halves.
