Grilled Eggplant Open Faced Sandwiches

This delicious recipe for Grilled Eggplant Open Faced Sandwiches is a favorite for when you’re craving something a little different.

Regular sandwiches get rather boring, don’t you think? Open faced sandwiches are fun and unique. We like to make them for dinner once in a while just to change things up. This sandwich is delicious with smoky grilled eggplant. It’s definitely not the kind of sandwich you see every day, and that’s why we love it!
