Fresh & Easy Grilled Eggplant Stacks

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grana padano

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds a cheesy flavor.

Season the ingredients with salt and a little olive oil.

Sprinkle parsley on top of the ingredients.

Cut the eggplant into slices, ensuring they are not too thick or too thin.

Salt the eggplant slices generously as they will absorb it well.

Grill the eggplant slices until they have nice grill marks and are soft.

Start stacking the ingredients: begin with a slice of eggplant, then add tomato and roasted red pepper, followed by fresh mozzarella.

Repeat the stacking process with another slice of eggplant, more tomato and roasted red pepper, and mozzarella, hanging the ingredients off different sides for presentation.

Finish the stack with a final slice of eggplant and drizzle with balsamic glaze.
