Grilled Eggplant Caprese Salad
  1. Combine 1 Tbsp. (15 mL) olive oil with Knorr® Concentrated Vegetable Bouillon. Lightly brush mixture onto eggplant. Grill or broil, turning frequently, until tender; cool.

  2. Meanwhile, bring vinegar, onion and garlic to a boil in small saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Stir in sugar until dissolved. Cool slightly, then stir in remaining 1 Tbsp. (15 mL) olive oil. Cool to room temperature.

  3. Alternately layer eggplant, tomatoes and cheese on serving platter. Sprinkle with basil, then drizzle balsamic reduction.
