GRILLED FETA AND ROASTED SQUASH SANDWICH



Grilled Feta and Roasted Squash Sandwich image

I had a hunk of butternut squash lingering in my refrigerator, and it turned out to be the perfect ingredient for a grilled cheese and vegetable sandwich. I roasted it to bring out its sweetness, and paired it with chopped fresh sage, my favorite herb to use with winter squash. The rest came together quite naturally. The sweet and earthy flavors against the salty feta are perfect. You'll have more mashed roasted squash than you need for one sandwich. Use it in another, or freeze it for another night when you're too tired to cook.

Time 40m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 pound butternut squash, peeled and diced (about 2 heaped cups diced squash)
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh sage
3/4 ounce feta, crumbled (3 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon chopped walnuts
2 slices whole-grain country bread

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven or toaster oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Toss the squash with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Place in the oven and roast until tender and lightly caramelized, 20 to 25 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a bowl.
  • Mash the squash with a fork. Stir in the sage. Taste for salt and pepper and add if desired. Measure out 1/4 cup (freeze or refrigerate the rest) and spread on one slice of the bread. Top with the crumbled feta and walnuts. Top with the remaining slice of bread and press down to secure. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the top slice.
  • Toast in toaster oven 3 to 4 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Remove from the oven, press down firmly, cut in half and serve.

With perfectly toasted, crisp bread, a slightly warm feta filling, and slices of juicy ripe tomato, this might be the best tomato sandwich I've ever had! The combo of briny feta and sweet tomatoes is amazing. Serve with chips and a cold glass of Pinot Grigio.

CALIFORNIA GRILLED VEGGIE SANDWICH



California Grilled Veggie Sandwich image

I came up with this recipe to entertain friends. Since I am a semi-vegetarian and love to BBQ, I am always inventing something new. The first time I made this, my meat-lover friends raved about this dish! I prefer mesquite coals over gas barbeques...however, either works fine.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

¼ cup mayonnaise
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
⅛ cup olive oil
1 cup sliced red bell peppers
1 small zucchini, sliced
1 red onion, sliced
1 small yellow squash, sliced
2 (4-x6-inch) focaccia bread pieces, split horizontally
½ cup crumbled feta cheese

Steps:

  • In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat the grill for high heat.
  • Brush vegetables with olive oil on each side. Brush grate with oil. Place bell peppers and zucchini closest to the middle of the grill, and set onion and squash pieces around them. Cook for about 3 minutes, turn, and cook for another 3 minutes. The peppers may take a bit longer. Remove from grill, and set aside.
  • Spread some of the mayonnaise mixture on the cut sides of the bread, and sprinkle each one with feta cheese. Place on the grill cheese side up, and cover with lid for 2 to 3 minutes. This will warm the bread, and slightly melt the cheese. Watch carefully so the bottoms don't burn. Remove from grill, and layer with the vegetables. Enjoy as open faced grilled sandwiches.

Feta and bread get roasted alongside squash, then tossed with pleasantly bitter greens for a vegetarian dinner salad that's equal parts warm and cold, soft and crunchy, and sweet and savory.
