Step 1

First, take your sliced eggplant and lay all the slices down onto a large plate. Sprinkle salt over them and allow them to “sweat” for 15-20 minutes. Afterwards, take a towel and pat them dry. This process helps remove the bitterness usually associated with eggplant.

Step 2

Preheat your oven to 425.

Step 3

As your oven preheats, quickly make the marinade for the veggies. Place all the marinade ingredients into a mason jar, and stir with a fork/spoon until fully mixed. Set aside.

Step 4

Next, take your prepped eggplant, bell peppers, mushrooms and place them into a large mixing bowl and pour your marinade over all the veggies. Toss the veggies until everything is fully coated and let them sit for 5-10 minutes, but no longer than 30 minutes otherwise they may get soggy.

Step 5

Once your oven is preheated, place all your marinating veggies onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 425 for 20-25 minutes, or until they are fork tender.

Step 6

As the veggies are baking, take a high powered blender with an accelerator stick and add all your pesto ingredients inside. Blend on high for 45-60 seconds, or until fully smooth. Taste for salt, and set aside.

Step 7

When the veggies are done roasting, remove from the oven and allow them to cool for 5 minutes.

Step 8

As the veggies are cooling, take your sourdough slices and toast them either on a cast iron flat top with dash of oil, or in a toaster.

Step 9

When all your sourdough slices are warm and crispy, grab your serving plates. For each sandwich, place two slices onto the plate, and spread a generous amount of almond pesto onto the top of each slice.

Step 10

Next, crumble your vegan feta onto the side that will be the bottom slice. Next, carefully stack a few roasted veggie pieces onto the side that will be the bottom slice.

Step 11

Top the veggies with a few leaves of romaine, and then carefully add the top slice. Take 2 skewers and place them through each side, and cut the sandwich with a sharp knife in half. Serve immediately while warm.

Step 12

Viola! The most epic roasted veggie sandwich you’ll ever have.
