Time 15m

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium-size zucchini, scrubbed, trimmed and sliced lengthwise in 1/8-inch-thick strips
2 baby eggplant, white or purple, washed, trimmed and halved lengthwise
2 large red onions, peeled and cut into 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick slices
10 to 15 large fresh basil leaves
4 hoagy or submarine rolls, preferably semolina

Steps:

  • Prepare grill.
  • Brush vegetables lightly with one tablespoon or less of the olive oil on both sides.
  • Grill zucchini 10 to 12 minutes, depending on thickness, turning several times; grill eggplant 6 to 8 minutes, turning; grill onion 6 to 8 minutes, turning.
  • Arrange vegetables in layers on flat plate, sprinkling remaining olive oil over them, interspering the layers with basil leaves. Allow to sit at room temperature for a few hours for flavors to meld.
  • If possible, use without refrigerating, but if refrigeration is necessary, return to room temperature before making into sandwiches.
  • Slice rolls lengthwise, but not completely through. Pull out the excess bread in the middle and fill with vegetables.

I found the sandwiches to be a bit dry. Maybe I should have used more pesto?

These sandwiches are perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. I like to add a dollop of hummus for extra creaminess.

Easy to make and packed with flavor. I especially loved the roasted red peppers.

I didn't have any pesto on hand, so I used a combination of olive oil, garlic, and herbs. Turned out great!

These grilled vegetable sandwiches were a hit at my last summer gathering! The veggies had a nice smoky flavor and the feta cheese added a touch of tanginess. Will definitely be making these again.
