Grilled Eggplant Sandwiches

Heat up those grills and fill up your stomachs with a hardy, yet healthy, grilled eggplant sandwich! Eggplant might seem a little scary at first but once you try it, you will be wanting more. 

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, dut into 4 slices

8 large fresh basil leaves

salt

black pepper

2 lemons, halved

1. Brush both sides of eggplant slices with olive oil
2. Divide mozzarella, tomato and basil among 4 eggplant slices
3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, top with remaining 4 eggplant slices
4. Place eggplant sandwiches and lemon halves on greased grill rack
5. Grill over medium-high heat (350-400 degrees) for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until cheese melts and eggplant is cooked through
6. Serve immediately with grilled lemon halves

*Note: Make the eggplant slices thin so they grill better. :) Enjoy!
