This didn't even take 25 minutes to prepare. I loved how quick easy it was to make. We used Garden Veggie Patties (from Morningstar Farms) and the flavor meshed well with the grilled veggies. The slight tang from the vinegar was great! If you don't mind a few extra calories, shredded cheddar cheese would probably be really yummy inside, too.
