Grilled Vegetable Sandwich

The start of Summer, what a wonderful time of the year. Getting the grills and lawn chairs out, dusting off the camping gear and setting the picnic table for friends and family. The abundance of fresh fruit and vegetables at the local produce markets is so wonderful. In our part of the country, the Summer just doesn't last long enough, so we try not to miss any opportunity to be outside in the warm weather cooking on our grill.

This Grilled Vegetable Sandwich takes full advantage of the Summer growing season. Farm fresh zucchini and sweet red peppers, grilled and stacked on a easy to make Garden Cream Cheese Sandwich Spread make this a great dish for a Summer lunch or dinner.

This healthy sandwich recipe is low in Cholesterol while being a good source of dietary fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin B6 and Potassium while also being a very good source of Vitamin C, Riboflavin and Selenium.
