About
With the abundance of fresh vegetables, it is only fitting to have them as often as possible.
This dish is super easy to assemble. I choose to prepare it on the grill side of my cast iron plank. Make sure it is very hot prior to adding your onions and the eggplants. Brushing the onions as well as the eggplant will prevent sticking to the grill. Keep the slices even between 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. In the other hand, the zucchini make sure they are sliced very thinly. A Mandoline will be helpful here if you have one. If not every grate has a slice opening and that will work as well.
Let your imagination work it’s magic while stacking your vegetables.. We liked the mozzarella slices between the red onion and the eggplant as it melted a bit.
