Ingredients
Scale

- 2 roasted red bell peppers, jarred or homemade, drained and chopped
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Coarse black pepper
- 5 large basil leaves, chopped
- 1 small clove garlic

Instructions
- Trim ends off eggplant and slice into 6 ¾-inch slices. Brush each side of each slice of eggplant with ½ teaspoon of olive oil. Sprinkle each side with a pinch of salt and a grind of black pepper.
- Preheat grill to medium. Add eggplant slices. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, spinning halfway through on each side to get hashtag grill marks. Remove from grill and allow to cool.
