Directions
1.Preheat broiler.

2.Slice eggplant lengthwise, about 1/4-inch thick then cut each slice crosswise in half.

3.Remove stems from portobello mushrooms then wipe the smooth surface of the mushroom with a paper towel to remove any excess soil.

4.Spray a cookie sheet with nonfat cooking spray. Place eggplant pieces and mushrooms (gill-side up) on the sheet then lightly spray vegetables with cooking spray. Broil about 5 inches or 2nd to the top shelf level of the oven from the broiler for about 7-10 minutes or until eggplant starts turning golden brown.

5.Remove roasted vegetables from oven. Place the portobellos, gill-side up on salad plates. Add a layer of arugula or greens then a slice of tomato. Spread 1 tablespoon of the goat cheese on the tomato then add an eggplant slice. Repeat starting with the arugula or greens 3 more times.

6.Drizzle each stack each with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar then sprinkle with desired amount of fresh oregano.
