Right off the grill, this recipe is an innovative way to add pizzazz to your summer Grill.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups shredded pizza cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
• 2 tablespoons dried sweet basil
• 3 – 1 pound eggplants
• 1/3 cup Extra Virgin olive oil
• salt & pepper, to taste
• 4 large tomatoes

Instructions

1. Stir together the shredded cheese, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs and basil in a mixing bowl to blend. Set aside for later use. Heat the barbecue to medium-high heat. Slice each eggplant lengthwise into 1/2-inch slices. Brush one side of each eggplant slice with olive oil and season with the spice rub. Place the eggplant slices on the grill, oiled side down, and grill until grill marks appear on the bottom side of the eggplant. Brush the top of each eggplant slice with olive oil, then turn the slices over. Cover each eggplant slice with a single layer of sliced tomatoes, then sprinkle the cheese mixture over the top to coat.
2. Close the grill and cook the Eggplant Parmesan until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
