Instructions
- Pre-heat grill on high heat to prepare to grill the vegetables. Place all of the vegetable slices on a large baking sheet then drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss well.
- When grill is pre-heated, add vegetables in a single layer and grill until tender and caramelized, turning once, about 5-7 minutes. Note: if you have a grill basket, I like to use those for the red onions and red peppers but it's optional.
- While veggies are grilling, slice the bread round in half length-wise then brush both sides (the inside part) with pesto. Top with grilled veggies and mozzarella slices before placing the other half of the loaf back on top. Place sandwich on a large piece of tin foil then place on grill to warm through. Grill until cheese is melted, about 4-5 minutes. Slice in large wedges to serve.
