  • Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
  • Yield: 2 Servings
15 15 30

Ingredients

  • 6 slices peeled eggplant (1/4 inch thick)
  • 1/2 cup sliced yellow summer squash (1/4 inch thick)
  • 1/3 cup sliced zucchini (1/4 inch thick)
  • 2 slices red onion (1/4 inch thick)
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Dash cayenne pepper
  • 2 hard rolls, split and toasted
  • 5 teaspoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 2 fresh basil leaves
  • 2 fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 cup julienned roasted sweet red peppers
  • 2 slices tomato
  • 2 teaspoons minced seeded jalapeno pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine the eggplant, yellow squash, zucchini and onion. Spray lightly with cooking spray. Add Italian seasoning and cayenne; toss to coat.
  • If broiling the vegetables, arrange on a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. If grilling the vegetables, transfer to a grill wok or basket. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat or grill, covered, over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until tender and lightly browned.
  • Spread roll bottoms with mayonnaise; layer with the basil, spinach, red peppers, tomato and jalapeno. Sprinkle with pepper. Top with vegetables; replace roll tops. Yield: 2 servings.

Editor's Note: Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
