Steps:
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle the oil over the eggplant, zucchini, and onion slices, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Working in batches, grill the eggplant, zucchini, and onions until they are tender and grill marks appear, about 4 minutes per side. Cool completely.
- Cut each baguette into 6 pieces. Working with one baguette piece at a time, slice in half and spread both sides with the pesto. Working with the bottom slice of the baguette, stack 2 slices of eggplant, 2 slices zucchini, 1 slice onion, 1 slice tomato, 1 slice mozzarella, and 1 slice of roasted pepper. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place top half of baguette on top and continue with remaining baguette. (The sandwiches can be made 4 hours ahead. Wrap well with plastic wrap and refrigerate.)
- 2 cups fresh basil leaves
- 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
- 2 garlic cloves, peeled
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/3 cup (about) extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
- In a blender, pulse the basil, pine nuts, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper until finely chopped. With the blender still running, gradually add enough oil to form a smooth and thick consistency. Transfer the pesto to a medium bowl and stir in 1/2 cup of cheese. Season the pesto with more salt and pepper, to taste. (The pesto can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

GRILLED-VEGETABLE PANINI
The uniform heat of a panini press gives these vegetable sandwiches just the right crispness. But they can easily be made without a press: Heat the panini in a heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium heat, and set another heavy skillet on top of them as they cook.

- Place all the veggies in a large bowl. Drizzle lightly with olive oil until coated. Grill veggies on an outdoor or indoor grill. The timing I find works for me is 8-10 minutes per side for the peppers, 4-5 minutes per side for the zucchini, 5-6 minutes per side for the portobello mushrooms, and the same for the onions. Use your judgement based on your grill and how toasty you like your veggies!
- Preheat your panini press if you have one, to medium-high heat. If not, you can cook this sandwich in a pan just like a grilled cheese!
- Once vegetables are all grilled, sprinkle with dried oregano, salt, and pepper to taste while they're still hot.
- Spread outsides of bread with softened butter. Spread insides with a couple tablespoons of pesto. Lay on your grilled vegetables, followed by two slices of provolone. Top with the other bread half.
