  • Eggplant, 1 small, cut into 6 to 8 rounds
  • Red bell pepper, chopped, ⅓ cup(s)
  • Extra virgin olive oil, 2 tsp(s)
  • Dried mixed herbs, 2 tsp(s), or Italian seasoning
  • Part-skim ricotta cheese, ⅓ cup(s)
  • Dijon mustard, 2 tsp(s)
  • Whole-wheat bread, 4 slice(s)
  • Cheddar cheese, reduced-fat, shredded, ⅓ cup(s)

Method

Add eggplant and bell peppers to a bowl. Coat with olive oil and season.

Preheat a BBQ or a grill pan (if cooking on stove) to medium-high heat. Cook the eggplant and bell peppers for 3 minutes each side or until just tender. Remove vegetables and sprinkle over the dried mixed herbs and set aside to cool.

In a bowl, mix the ricotta and mustard together. Spread evenly over 2 slices of bread. Top with chargrilled vegetables and then cheddar. Top with remaining slices of bread.

Cook in a sandwich press or a non-stick skillet until toasted. Cut in half and serve.

TIP: For a faster meal, buy chargrilled vegetables (not in oil) from the deli section of the supermarket. This sandwich is just as delicious served untoasted.
