A vibrant and flavorful grilled vegetable sandwich with a Mediterranean twist.
Combine the zucchini, onion, and bell pepper in a bowl with olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Let it marinate for 30 minutes.
Marinating the vegetables enhances their flavor and ensures they grill evenly.
Preheat the grill to medium heat. Place the marinated vegetables on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until tender.
Use a grill basket to prevent smaller pieces from falling through the grates.
In a small bowl, mix the feta cheese, lemon zest, and black pepper to create a spread.
Let the feta cheese come to room temperature for easier mixing.
Toast the bread slices lightly on the grill for 1-2 minutes per side.
Brush the bread with a little olive oil before toasting for added flavor.
Spread the feta mixture on one side of each bread slice. Layer the grilled vegetables on top and close the sandwich.
Press the sandwich gently to help it hold together while serving.
Cut the sandwich into halves or quarters and serve warm.
Serve with a side of mixed greens or a light soup for a complete meal.
