2 slices bread
1 tablespoon butter
3 slices roasted eggplant
3 slices roasted zucchini
3 slices fresh tomato
2 tablespoons pesto sauce
2 slices fresh mozzarella

After seasoning the eggplant and zucchini and roasting them in the oven, toast the bread. Spread the butter on the toasted bread. Layer the pesto, eggplant, zucchini, tomato and mozzarella. Top with the other slice of bread and serve!

Serves 1

2 tbs extra-virgin olive oil
3 tbs butter
1 garlic clove, cracked away from skin
8 slices crusty Italian semolina bread
1 cup shredded provolone
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romano
1 cup shredded Asiago

1. In a small skillet over medium-low heat, combine oil, butter and garlic. Cook garlic in butter and oil gently for 2 or 3 minutes. Remove garlic butter mixture from heat.

2. Place a large nonstick skillet on the stove over medium-high heat. Using a pastry brush, brush 1 side of 4 slices of bread with garlic oil and place buttered-side down in skillet. Top each slice with equal amounts of the 4 cheeses, distributing them equally over the 4 slices. Top each sandwich with another slice of bread brushed with garlic butter, buttered-side up.

3. Flip the grill cheese sandwiches a few times until cheeses are melted and gooey and bread is toasty and golden. Cut grilled 4 cheese sandwiches from corner to corner and serve.

Reduce oven temperature to 375F. Cook the sausage and mushrooms in a large skillet until the sausage is brown (about 5 minutes). Stir the eggs, condensed soup, onion and pepper together in a medium bowl. Stir in the sausage mixture, broccoli, and 3/4 of the cheese.

Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Bake until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean (40-45 minutes). Sprinkle the remaining cheese over. Let stand for 10 minutes.
