You won’t need a panini press to make this grilled sandwich, which showcases some of Giada’s classic pairings: mozzarella, pesto and grilled vegetables. Eggplant, zucchini and red onions are cooked until tender and piled high on baguettes that have been slathered with basil pesto and topped with fresh mozzarella and tomatoes.

Make this a complete summer meal by serving gazpacho or a salad like Guy’s Grilled Romaine With Blue Cheese-Bacon Vinaigrette alongside.
