INGREDIENTS
2 slices Whole Wheat Bread
5 ounces Firm Tofu, grilled
1 ounce Fresh Mozzarella Cheese (Part-Skim)
1 tablespoon Basil Pesto
1 cup Grilled Mixed Vegetables (eggplant, zucchini, red bell pepper)
2 ounces Chickpeas (Canned, Drained)
PREPARATION
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut into slices or cubes and marinate with herbs of your choice for about 15 minutes.
Prepare mixed vegetables by slicing eggplant, zucchini, and red bell pepper. Toss them lightly with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Preheat your grill or grill pan. Grill the tofu for about 4-5 minutes on each side until grill marks appear. Grill the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes per side until tender and charred.
Toast the whole wheat bread slices on the grill or in a toaster until lightly crisp.
Spread basil pesto evenly on one side of each toasted bread slice.
Layer the grilled tofu, mixed vegetables, and sprinkle the chickpeas over the vegetables. Top with slices of fresh mozzarella cheese.
Assemble the sandwich by placing the second slice of bread on top, pesto side down, and press gently.
Slice the sandwich in half and serve warm.
