Steps:
- For Panini:.
- 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.).
- For Basil Pesto:.
- 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.)
- Yields 1 cup and takes about 10 minutes to prepare.

EASY VEGETABLE PANINIS
This is so easy, tastes so good, and is a bit different from everything I've seen here! The best thing about vegetable paninis is that you can change the vegetables, cheese and bread to things that please your palate or whatever you have on hand. I sometimes change the bread and I often mix up the veggies with tomatoes, summer squash and avocadoes when I have them. If you have a panini press or the like by all means use it; the recipe is written for those who don't.

Steps:
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add mushroom slices and cook 6-7 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally.
- Spray one side of 4 slices of bread with nonstick cooking spray. Place bread slices, sprayed side down, on work surface. Layer each slice of bread with 1 slice cheese and equal portions of mushrooms, onions, spinach and red peppers. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and top with 1 more slice of cheese. Spray one side of remaining 4 bread slices with cooking spray, then place sprayed side up over fillings.
- Preheat grill pan over medium heat. Cook sandwiches 3-4 minutes per side or until bread is golden brown and cheese melts, weighing them down with a heavy skillet or pressing down with large spatula. Cut sandwiches in half diagonally to serve.
