    Antipasto of Vegetables & Mozzarella


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    2 medium eggplants
    4 sweet red peppers
    olive oil
    salt & black pepper, to taste
    1 8-ounce jar sun-dried tomatoes, packed in oil
    1/2 cup olives
    8 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced
    1 tablespoon Balsamic or red wine vinegar
    toasted French or Italian bread slices

    Recipe



    Peel and slice the eggplant into 1/2-inch thick slices. Cut the peppers in half, lengthwise, and remove the seeds and pith. Slice again into lengthwise quarters. Place the vegetables in a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

    Place the vegetables on a medium-hot gas or charcoal grill. Grill the eggplant slices until soft and golden brown, about 2 minutes each side. Grill the pepper slices, skin side down, until skins become blackened, about 3 minutes. Remove from the grill, cool and remove the skins.

    Arrange the eggplant, peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, olives and mozzarella slices on a large platter. Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the antipasto at room temperature with toasted French or Italian bread slices. Serves 4 to 6.
