Grilled Eggplant with Mushroom-Sage Olive Oil Drizzle & Goat Cheese (serves 4)

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2-1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
• 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
• Mushroom-sage infused olive oil, to drizzle
• Fresh basil, to garnish 

Turn on grill and heat. Toss eggplant slices with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Let sit for about 5 minutes, to absorb the flavors. Grill each side for about 2-3 minutes, or until softened.
