I tried so many different eggplant recipes that I absolutely hated. It ust be a texture thing because I cannot stand it! Luckily, my friend introduced me to this scrumptious recipe that is quick and easy. Enjoy!
1 eggplant, sliced into very thin medallions
1 red bell pepper, sliced very thin
1 yellow or orange bell pepper, sliced very thin
1/3 C goat cheese
1 ball of fresh mozzarella (have not tried pre-shredded bags but would probably work in a pinch)
Good crusty bread (ciabatta or sourdough would be great!)
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with PAM or other spray oil. Place the eggplant and bell pepper slices on the sheet and spray the tops with more oil. Salt the items and then place in the oven. Let cook until the eggplant is shriveled and the peppers are soft, about 15-20 minutes. Remove.
Cut the bread into sandwich halves, spread one side with goat cheese and the other with slices of fresh mozzarella. I was able to get about 4 sandwiches out of this amount of ingredients but it really depends on sizes. Top either side with the baked eggplant and bell peppers. Put both sides of the sandwich into an oven proof dish and bake until the cheese has started to melt (about 10 minutes). Remove from oven.
Take either side of the sandwich and bring them together to form, well, a sandwich! Eat heartily!
This recipe really is not that difficult and I love that it is so simple. You could probably add zucchini too, if you like.
