How to make

  • Step 1Preheat oven to 400°F (200°F). Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Step 2Score shallow crosshatch marks on both sides of each eggplant slice using very sharp knife and making parallel cuts a scant 1/4-inch (5 mm) deep and 1/2-inch (1 cm) apart. In bowl, toss together eggplant, oil, hot pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Place flat on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes. Turn pieces over; bake another 15 minutes or until golden and tender. Cool on baking sheet.
  • Step 3Open up buns; spread hummus evenly over cut sides of each bun. Divide eggplant, cucumber, tomatoes, sprouts and arugula evenly among bun bottoms. Top each with hummus-spread bun top. Serve immediately or wrap and chill for up to 12 hours.
