Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Zucchini
- 1 medium Eggplant
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 2 Portobello mushroom caps
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 4 slices Provolone cheese
- 2 large Hero rolls
- 4 leaves Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Slice the zucchini and eggplant lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick strips. Remove the stem and seeds from the red bell pepper, then cut it into large flat pieces. Remove the stems from the portobello mushroom caps.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and garlic powder to create a marinade.
Brush the marinade over both sides of the zucchini, eggplant, red bell pepper, and mushroom caps.
Place the vegetables on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until tender and lightly charred. Remove from the grill and set aside.
Lightly toast the hero rolls on the grill for 1-2 minutes until slightly crisp.
Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the bottom halves of the toasted rolls.
Layer the grilled vegetables evenly on the rolls, starting with the eggplant and zucchini. Follow with the red bell pepper and mushrooms.
Top the vegetables with 2 slices of provolone cheese per sandwich, and add fresh basil leaves.
Close the sandwiches with the top halves of the rolls and press gently.
Serve warm with a side of chips or salad for a complete meal.
