This sandwich was born when I brought home adorable baby eggplants from the local farmers' market. Eggplant and goat cheese go together perfectly. -CL Reader Ingredients:
1 teaspoon olive oil |
2 (1/4-inch) vertical slices small eggplant |
cooking spray |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1/4 cup (2 ounces) goat cheese, softened |
2 (1 1/2-ounce) rustic sandwich rolls |
2 (1/4-inch) slices tomato |
1 cup arugula |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 275°. 2. Brush oil over eggplant. 3. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add eggplant; cook 5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. 4. Spread about 1 tablespoon of goat cheese over cut side of each roll half. Place rolls on a baking sheet, cheese sides up; bake at 275° for 8 to 10 minutes or until thoroughly heated. 5. Remove from oven; top bottom half of each roll with 1 eggplant slice, 1 tomato slice, and 1/2 cup arugula. Top sandwiches with top halves of rolls. |
