I love eggplants. I can eat it as is roasted or fried. Here is a quick and easy recipe that is healthy as well. You can lose the mayo or use a fat free one if desired. It is also a good idea to experiment with different types of bread until you find one that suits your taste.

 

Ingredients:

1 small eggplant, sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 cup mayonnaise

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 French bread (6 inches)

1 small tomato, sliced

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves

Salt and pepper

 

Brush the eggplants with olive oil. Season them with salt and pepper. Grill the eggplants for 5-10 minutes on each side or until they are tender and the edges are brown.

While grilling the eggplants, slice the French bread in half. Place them on the grill face down to toast them as well.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and garlic. Take the bread slices and spread garlic mayo on them. Place the eggplant slices on both pieces of bread and top it with to tomato slices, feta cheese and basil leaves. Serve immediately.
