How to make Vegetarian Eggplant Sandwich:
1 Before making this recipe, the first step is to get all the ingredients ready. If you prefer to make a 100% vegan sandwich, you can substitute both types of cheese for avocado.
Tip: If you decide to use avocado, you can mash it until it has the texture of butter, remember to add a few drops of lemon so that it does not brown.
2 In a frying pan with oil, arrange the aubergine, season with salt and pepper and cook over low heat until golden brown and soft. You can cut slices or slices of eggplant not very thick.
3 Toast the bread slices until golden brown, add cream cheese and spread on one side on both buns. Do the same with the avocado in case you have decided not to use cheese. If you want you can try making this vegetarian sandwich with rye bread.
4 Arrange the aubergine slices one on top of the other on a slice of bread.
5 Finally, add the lettuce leaves, tomato and cheese slices.
6 Close the vegetarian eggplant sandwich and enjoy accompanied by a freshly made fruit smoothie. And if you want something more substantial you can try the beef and cheese sandwich or the tuna vegetable sandwich.
