Ingredients

  • 1 medium eggplant, sliced into 1/4 inch rounds
  • 2 large tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 (11 ounce) log goat cheese
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat grill for medium heat.
  2. In a large bowl, coat eggplant with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
