Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground lamb
2 tablespoons minced fresh or 2 teaspoons dried mint
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
4 cups diced peeled eggplant (about 1 pound)
2 cups vertically sliced vidalia or other sweet onion
2 cups thinly sliced shiitake mushroom caps (about 4 ounces)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
4 (1/4-inch-thick) slices tomato
2 (1 1/2-ounce) french bread rolls, halved and toasted
Directions:
1. Prepare grill.

Heat 1 teaspoon oil in pan; add onion, and cook 7 minutes or until golden brown, stirring frequently. Add mushrooms; cook 3 minutes. Stir in eggplant and vinegar. Remove from heat.
