Grilled Eggplant & Portobello Sandwich - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 small garlic clove, chopped
1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 medium eggplant (about 1 pound)
3 medium portobello mushroom caps, gills removed
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
8 slices whole wheat bread, lightly grilled
2 cups arugula or 2 cups spinach, stemmed and chopped if large
1 large tomatoes, sliced

Preparation

Preheat grill to medium-high.
Mash garlic into a paste on a cutting board with the back of a spoon. Combine with mayonnaise and lemon juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
Coat both sides of eggplant rounds and mushroom caps with cooking spray and season with salt and pepper. Grill the vegetables, turning once, until tender and browned on both sides: 2 to 3 minutes per side for eggplant, 3 to 4 minutes for mushrooms. When cool enough to handle, slice the mushrooms.
Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons of the garlic mayonnaise on each piece of bread. Layer the eggplant, mushrooms, arugula (or spinach) and tomato slices onto 4 slices of bread and top with the remaining bread.
