Grilled Zucchini Sandwich Food

GRILLED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Whisk olive oil, sea salt, garlic, rosemary, and black pepper together in a bowl; brush evenly onto zucchini strips.
• Cook on preheated grill until brown, 5 to 7 minutes per side; transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over zucchini to serve.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI PARMESAN SANDWICHES

Steps:

• In a skillet, saute onion, garlic, basil, oregano, salt and pepper in olive oil until onion is translucent.

• Top each sandwich with thin slices of tomato and a sprinkling of 1 tablespoon Parmesan.
• Broil until cheese turns golden.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI SANDWICH

Steps:

• You can toast the bread, but I didn't. Spread the hummus on one slice of the bread and the mustard on the other slice.
• Layer the grilled zucchini, tomato slices, and lettuce between the bread.
• Salt and pepper to taste, but I think the hummus and mustard gives it a great flavor.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI AND MEXICAN TOFU SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Cut off the stems and navels from the zucchini and cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Lightly brush 2 baking sheets with olive oil. Place the zucchini slices on the sheets and brush the tops lightly with more olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven until soft but not browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
• Combine all the ingredients for the filling, including tofu spread, basil, salt and pepper to taste, in a bowl. Using a wooden spoon, beat until smooth.
• Place a teaspoonful of filling at the wider end of each zucchini slice and roll up the slice. Fix rolls with chives. (Optional).
• Sprinkle with lemon juice.

GRILLED HALLOUMI AND MINTED ZUCCHINI SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high and clean and oil the grate. (Or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.)
• Marinate the zucchini in 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, the lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside for at least 30 minutes. In a separate dish, brush the sliced halloumi with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil. Peel the onion and cut it into 1/2-inch wedges through the core to hold each wedge together. Marinate the onion in 1 teaspoon olive oil and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Grill the zucchini until it has dark grill marks and is tender. Toss immediately in a bowl with the garlic and mint; then set aside. Grill the onion wedges, turning once, until they are slightly charred on the edges and a bit softened but not totally limp. Grill the halloumi until softened and marked by the grill.
• Slice the baguette lengthwise, leaving one side slightly attached. Brush with the remaining teaspoon of the olive oil. Cut crosswise into four even segments. Distribute the zucchini, halloumi and onions evenly among the sandwiches.

GRILLED MUSHROOM-ZUCCHINI CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat.
• Grill vegetables 5 to 7 min. or until onions are crisp-tender, turning and brushing occasionally with dressing. Meanwhile, grill rolls, cut sides down, 1 to 2 min. or until lightly toasted.
• Remove vegetables and rolls from grill. Cut mushrooms into thin strips. Separate onions into rings.
• Spread rolls with reduced-fat cream cheese; fill with arugula, grilled vegetables, tomatoes and cheese.
