  1. So many things to love about this delightful sandwich! Wonderful mix of flavors from the eggplant, red peppers, garlic and tomatoes. Top that off with sweet fresh basil and a drizzle of vinegar and good olive oil and you can't go wrong. I scaled back to 1 serving, added zucchini with the eggplant and omitted the escarole and capers because I didn't have any. Otherwise made as written and thoroughly enjoyed!
     
  2. Yummy! I used a multi grain Artisan bread and enjoyed the veggies. The capers were a nice touch and the drizzle of wine vinegar topped it off. I used spinach instead of escarole and did add a shmear of mayo. Thanks for a great lunch!
