GRILLED SUMMER VEGETABLE SANDWICHES WITH PESTO

Steps:

• Slice the zucchini and summer squash lengthwise, 1/4- to 1/2-inch thick. Cut the bell pepper into 1-inch wide strips. Lay in a roomy baking dish.
• Make the marinade. In a small bowl, whisk together all marinade ingredients. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. Pour over the veggies and toss gently. Let sit for about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the pesto. First, toast the walnuts (an optional but worthwhile step - toasting adds wonderful flavor). To toast, set a small pan over medium heat and add the walnuts. Stir frequently until golden and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add to the pitcher of a blender or a food processor fitted with the s-blade. Add the basil, garlic, thyme, lemon juice, nutritional yeast or Parmesan if using, and salt. Turn on the blender or food processor, streaming in the olive oil as it runs, until a sauce forms. Taste pesto and add additional salt if desired.
• Prepare your grill - medium direct heat, about 375 degrees. Lay the vegetables on the preheated grill grates and cook until grill lines form, about 5 minutes. Flip (we like to use long-handled tongs) and cook on the other side until tender and cooked through, about 5 more minutes. Transfer from the grill to a platter. Keep the grill on to quickly toast the rolls.
• Slice the rolls in half and brush the insides with the 2 tablespoons olive oil. Lay the rolls cut-side down on the grill and cook just until warmed and a little golden and toasty. Remove from grill.
• Assemble the sandwiches. Smear both sides of the roll with approx. 1 tablespoon of pesto on each side (more or less to taste). Add a layer of zucchini, summer squash, and two or three strips of the pepper. Close, cut in half, and serve!

SUMMER VEGGIE SANDWICH RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Soak eggplant slices in salted water 10 minutes to drain bitterness. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and in a third bowl, place flour. Dip eggplants slices first in egg wash, then in flour to create a 'crust.'
• Pan-fry eggplant slices until softened and golden-brown, then set aside.
• Assemble the sandwiches by layering a bottom slice of eggplant with garlic, tomato, mayo, and then parsley. Top with another eggplant slice.
• Serve.

SOUTHERN TOMATO SANDWICH

Steps:

• Spread 1 to 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (depending on taste) evenly over both slices of bread. Place two slices of tomato on one slice of bread and sprinkle with half of the salt and pepper. Add two more slices of tomato and sprinkle with remaining salt and pepper. Place second slice of bread, mayonnaise side down, on the top.
