Ingredients & Directions

  • 2 portobello mushroom, cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, cut into strips (about 1 1/2 cups)

Spray a nonstick grill pan with vegetable cooking spray and heat over medium heat for 1 minute.

Add the mushrooms, pepper and onion to one side of the pan.  Add the eggplant to the other side.  Sprinkle the garlic powder over all, if desired.  Cook until the vegetables are tender.  Sprinkle the eggplant with the cheese and cook until the cheese is melted.
