Grilled Veggie Sammys

By -

I saw this recipe, and I wanted to like it.  I wanted Jeff to like it.  And we did!  This is easy and good too.  We ended up making 4 sandwiches using rolls similar in size to hoagie rolls and had plenty of leftover veggies which I used for pizza toppings and that was quite yummy too.  I'm going to make this a regular dinner chez-Thomas.

Grilled Veggie Sammys

1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 - 3 cloves garlic, minced (it depends how strong of garlic you want)
1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 sliced red bell pepper
1 small zucchini, sliced
1 small yellow squash, sliced
1 small red onion, sliced
olive oil & veggie oil
kosher salt & pepper

1 french baguette, or some sturdy rolls

Feta or a different mild cheese

Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix mayo, garlic and lemon juice.  Set aside.
Combine all veggies on a cookie sheet, drizzle with oils*, salt & pepper.  Toss to coat.  Bake for about 15 - 20 minutes, until veggies are tender and remove from oven.

Turn on broiler. Slice baguette in half length-wise.

Spread mayo mixture on both sides of bread & top with feta.
Place bread in oven for 2 - 4 minutes and remove from oven.  Top one side of bread with grilled veggies and then top with other side of bread.

Enjoy!

*I heard that if you add some oil with a higher burning temp with olive oil, then your olive oil won't burn which has a lower burning temperature than some oils like canola oil.  I've found this to be helpful as I roast veggies in the oven.  But feel free to only use olive oil if you want.

    This sounds delicious! It's too bad Jon doesn't like any of the ingredients with the exception of garlic, salt and pepper. I'll put this on my, "when Jon's out of town" list.

Josh got me to try some lentil soup at Corner Bakery. I was nervous, because I have not liked lentils in the past, but in the past few years I have grown to love many things I hadn't previously. And I liked it! So I immediately went on the hunt for a "copy cat" recipe, and though I have no idea if this is in fact the same, all three of us enjoyed it!  Lentil Vegetable Soup 2/3 c green lentils 1/3 c orange lentils (you can really use whatever lentils you wants) 1 lg onion, roughly chopped 2-3 cloves garlic, chopped 1 lg tomato, chopped 1-2 carrots, diced 1/2 c mushrooms 1/2 bunch spinach or 2-3 big leaves of kale, chopped fine 1/4 c corn 2-4 c vegetable/chicken broth S&P to taste Combine and wash all lentils and set aside. In a pot, heat some olive oil and saute onions, carrots, and garlic till onions are translucent. Add the mushrooms, and some salt. Saute a few minutes until they get soft, then add the tomatoes. Cover and let t...

Easy Shepherd's Pie

1 lb. ground beef 2 cups hot mashed potatoes 1 cup KRAFT Shredded Cheddar Cheese 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed 1 cup beef gravy PREHEAT oven to 375ºF. Brown meat in large skillet. Meanwhile, mix potatoes, 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese and the garlic until well blended. DRAIN meat. Return to skillet; stir in vegetables and gravy. Spoon into 9-inch square baking dish; cover with potatoes and remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese. BAKE 20 min. or until heated through. Many of you know Jon and I are picky eaters. This is one recipe we came across in the Krafts Food magazine when we were searching for meals we'd both like. I have never had Shepherd's Pie before, but I liked it. I especially like that it is pretty quick and easy. It tastes good as leftovers too. We haven't mixed the cheese into the potatoes because we didn't really feel like it or added garlic just because we didn't have any, but I'm sure it'd still taste good.
