2. Cooking Directions

  1. In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  2. Preheat the grill for high heat.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.

Yield: 4 servings

  • Fantastic Sandwich

    kristy_cancro - July 23, 2007 11:41:26 AM PST
    I have had this recipe for several years and it ALWAYS turns out fantastic. It's very delicious and it's very filling. The only reason I don't make it more is that I don't actually have a grill so I can only make it when I'm visiting others. I have come to prefer gorganzola over feta (it melts better) and I usually just use a Sourdough bread loaf. Also, I try to let the veggies soak in the marinade all day. Either way, this recipe is amazingly delicious. Everyone always raves and wants more.

  • To Die For

    WOW! What an incredible sandwich! Instead of zucchini, we substituted avocado, gorgonzola and added tomatoes. Since it's still winter, we grilled the vegetables on the stove in olive oil and then put the sandwiches in our panini press. TO DIE FOR!

  • Hmm...

    Like the latest reviewers, I am concerned about the nutrition facts for this sandwich. To make it healthier, switch the Foccacia with whole wheat bread and either skip the mayo or use a lighter version. Hellmann's light mayo tastes better than most full-fat varieties and doesn't have the light aftertaste.
