what a perfect end of summer treat!  it's gotta be fresh mozzarella and fresh basil.  got it from everyday food magazine.  also, the roasted eggplant is delicious on its own--i recently discovered that sea salt is the answer to almost all vegetables.  i roasted the whole thing and ate the other half for snack.
ingredients
1/2 medium eggplant, thinly sliced
1/2 lb fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
2 tomatoes (any variety), sliced
1/4 C loosely packed fresh basil
olive oil
balsamic vinegar
directions
brush a baking sheet with 1 T olive oil and arrange eggplant thereon.  using the remaining olive oil on the brush, brush tops of the eggplant.  sprinkle with sea salt (or another coarse salt) and pepper.  roast @ 400 for 10-20 minutes, depending on how thick you sliced it.  allow to cool to room temperature.
on a serving platter arrange the eggplant, mozzarella and tomatoes.  top with basil.  drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
