Eggplant and mushrooms cook on the grill or under your broiler in a matter of minutes and lend a smoky flavor to this delicious sandwich topped with tomato and basil between slices of whole grain bread.
Layer eggplant and mushroom in a large baking dish and top each piece with a little of the balsamic and minced garlic. Make sure all sides are covered. Marinate for 30 minutes or longer.
Preheat broiler and place vegetables on a baking sheet lined with a Silpat, parchment paper or sprayed with a little oil. Make sure that they are in one layer.
Place cookie sheets 6-7" from the broiler. Broil for 5-6 minutes, then flip and broil another 5-6 minutes, watching carefully so as not to burn.
Sprinkler basil leaves over if using.
For a sandwich, pile mushrooms and eggplant on your bread or bun with homemade mayonnaise or your favorite condiments and top with onions, tomato, avocado, and lettuce.
