Here is the best summer recipe I’ve got, and, I think it’s accurate to say, one of the Top 10 “One Teaspoon from Disaster� recipes of all time.

Let me tell you why these open-faced grilled veggie sandwiches are so wonderful.

1. Prep time and cook time is about 20 minutes.

2. The main ingredient is colorful, fresh summer-time veggies, which we all need to eat many more servings of than we do.

3. There’s hardly any clean-up.

4. The “spread� seems very fancy, but really it’s just some mayo, garlic and lemon juice.

5. Feta cheese is a crowd pleaser.

Most importantly, this sandwich is absolutely delicious. Watch your bread so it doesn’t burn!
