Steps:
- Brush panini press, panini pan, or grill rack with oil; heat press, pan, or barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush eggplant rounds and pepper strips with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Working in batches, grill eggplant until tender, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes. Working in batches, grill bell peppers until tender, turning occasionally and flattening with back of spatula for even cooking, about 6 minutes. Place 8 eggplant rounds and 8 bell pepper strips on rimmed baking sheet. Place remaining eggplant and peppers on work surface and slice thinly; reserve for salad.

Cover with plastic and let stand at room temperature.
- Heat panini press, panini pan, or barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush press or pan with oil (if using barbecue, lightly brush bread slices with oil). Place sandwiches in press or pan or on grill; cover and cook until bread is golden and cheese is melted, about 5 minutes per side.

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.)

GRILLED EGGPLANT PANINI
Grilling eggplant slices on a panini grill is worth the price of the grill. They're ready in 2 or 3 minutes, and if you don't use them for this sandwich you can top them with tomato sauce, chop them up and toss them with pasta or rice, or drizzle them with vinaigrette and sprinkle with feta and fresh herbs, such as mint, parsley, basil, or marjoram.
