- 3 Sprouted Grain Burger Buns
- Large eggplant, sliced into 6 pieces
- 1 cup of marinara

- 1 tsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp of Italian seasoning
- Olive oil, to drizzle
- ½ cup of fresh basil leaves
- 1 tsp sea salt

Preheat oven to 375º Fahrenheit.
Slice eggplant into 6 rounds. Toss with olive oil then season with 1 tsp sea salt, ½ tsp pepper, 1 tsp of Italian seasoning, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp of nutritional yeast.
Place on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and browned. Set aside.
Turn the oven to low broil and lightly toast 3 burger buns.
Add 2 pieces of roasted eggplant to each bottom bun. Spoon over ⅓ cup of marinara until it covers each eggplant. Top with slices of fresh mozzarella.
Place the open sandwiches on a baking sheet and broil in the oven until cheese is melted and slightly browned, 3-5 minutes.
Remove from the oven, add fresh basil leaves, and add the top bun. Enjoy immediately. This recipe makes 3 sandwiches.
