Grilled Tomato, Zucchini and Goat Cheese Stack

This delightful veggie plus, (plus is the bacon of course) sandwich is made better with the freshest farm vegetables- so I go to Yoder’s produce on Bahia Vista.

Ingredients

½ pound bacon- cooked crisp
4 rosemary hamburger rolls( Yoder’s Market carries Bavarian bread and rolls)
2 small tubes goat cheese
4 zucchini sliced ¼ inch thick
4 summer squash, sliced ¼ inch thick
Extra virgin olive oil
2 large red tomatoes
2 yellow tomatoes sliced
2 bunches basil- washed and separated from stems
Sea salt
Fresh ground pepper
Pinch crushed red pepper
Red or purple peepers- optional

Directions

  1. Slice vegetables and brush with olive oil, sea salt and ground black and crushed red peppers. Place on grill or griddle pan until lightly brown but do not let get too soft.
  2. To assemble: Slice open bun. Spread with herb goat cheese. Stack both tomatoes, basil, zucchini, yellow squash, bacon, repeat and top with pepper (optional) and another slice of bacon.
  3. The leftover veggies are perfect cold the next day on a platter with balsamic vinegar and ricotta salata.

What to serve for dessert? In prime cheery season like right now- serve a scrumptious cheery pie of course!
