It doesn't get easier than this, nor more delicious. It is light and refreshing. I love it with a cup of soup, whatever kind you like.
To make it even easier, I buy slices of breaded eggplant from a very good deli. Be sure they are sliced thin. If you'd rather fry your own (or bake them) I included a quick recipe at the bottom of the "directions"

    I don't care for sandwiches and almost never eat them. But love eggplant sandwiches. I've never added peppers so will have to try it.

      Patricia: I so agree. I'm not a big sandwich lover either, but this one is too good to pass up. Yes, do try roasted red peppers on it. I just had it again on Friday. A very good meatless sandwich and great during Lent. N

        Hey there Fair Ladies: Isn't the best recipes the simple ones...yes, my Nonna too. As she fried the eggplant, we ate it...she must have made alot to have enough for the actual meal she was trying to cook! Will post a picture of this sandwich tonight, I think. Happy Labor Day weekend! Marinating skirt steaks to BBQ. N

          Ooooh, Nanette! My Nonna and I always "snacked" on fried eggplant sandwiches when she was cooking them up for some other dish. Your posts always bring happy memories
