Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, toss the eggplant, zucchini, mushrooms, and bell pepper with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic, and thyme. Arrange the vegetable mixture on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and golden.

In a blender or food processor, combine the greek yogurt, basil, parsley, garlic, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Transfer to a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.

To assemble the sandwiches, spread some of the herb spread on the bottom halves of the toasted rolls. Top with a slice of mozzarella cheese, followed by some roasted vegetable slices. Add some baby arugula leaves and cover with the top halves of the rolls. Cut in half and serve.
