Tips:

Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread like Italian or French bread is best for holding all the grilled vegetables and sauce.
Grill the vegetables perfectly: Vegetables should be grilled until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. For best results, grill them over medium heat.
Use a flavorful sauce: A simple olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing is a great option. You could also try a pesto sauce or a creamy goat cheese dressing.
Layer the vegetables and sauce: Start with a layer of bread, then add the grilled vegetables. Drizzle with sauce and repeat the layers. Top with another layer of bread.
Grill the sandwich: Grill the sandwich in a panini press or on a griddle until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. You can also bake the sandwich in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes.

Conclusion:

Pats Grilled Vegetable Hero is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. The grilled vegetables are flavorful and healthy, and the sauce adds a delicious touch. This sandwich is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
