Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. On a large baking sheet, arrange sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and eggplant.
3. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Toss to ensure even coating.
4. Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they're tender and beautifully caramelized, stirring halfway through.
5. Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and let them cool slightly.
6. While cooling, spread a generous layer of softened goat cheese on one side of each slice of ciabatta bread.
7. Next, layer the roasted vegetables and fresh baby spinach on top of the goat cheese.
8. Finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze for that extra touch of sweetness.
9. Top with another slice of ciabatta bread to create your sandwich.
10. Heat a pan or grill pan over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwich in the pan and toast for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
11. Remove from the pan and allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing in half and serving warm.
