• Place the eggplant in a colander. Sprinkle generously with salt and let stand 30 minutes. (This removes the excess water from the eggplant.) Rinse the eggplant and arrange in a single layer on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Pat dry. Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat (see Cook's Note).
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Brush the eggplant and bread slices with 3 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle the eggplant with salt and pepper.
• Line a small rimmed baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil and coat with nonstick cooking spray. Toss the grape tomatoes, vinegar, honey and the remaining tablespoon olive oil on the foil. Bake the tomatoes until they burst, about 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill the eggplant until browned and tender, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Grill the bread until toasted and grill marks appear, 1 minute on each side. Rub the cut sides of the garlic on the bread. Set aside.
• Transfer the tomatoes to a medium bowl. Coarsely chop the eggplant and add to the tomatoes. Add the chopped basil, then season with salt and pepper.

• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Toss the trimmed asparagus with the olive oil and some salt and pepper. Grill until lightly charred on each side, but still robust and crunchy, about 5 minutes. When cool enough to handle, cut the asparagus into very thin slices on the bias (diagonal), and set aside.
• Brush both sides of the bread slices with olive oil. Grill the bread on both sides until toasted with nice grill marks. Remove from the grill and immediately rub the slices of bread on one side with the peeled garlic cloves.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the goat cheese, tomatoes and red pepper until well combined. Spread the goat cheese mixture on the grilled bread in an even layer. Divide the asparagus among each slice of bread, layering it on top of the cheese mixture. Cut each slice in half, and serve the bruschetta immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

• Grill the eggplant in batches until there are grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and grill until there are grill marks and the eggplant softens and is no longer white, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining eggplant.
• Grill the tomatoes on each side until they begin to pop, 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a medium bowl. Turn off the heat.

• Preheat the grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the bread slices with oil on both sides and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until the bread is crusty and you see grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
• Put the artichokes in a large bowl. Chop up the cooled eggplant. Remove the cherry tomato skins if desired; they should come right off. Halve or quarter the tomatoes and add to the bowl. Add the lemon zest and half of the vinaigrette and toss together. Taste and adjust the seasoning as desired.
• Top each piece of grilled bread with 3 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture and some crumbled feta if desired.
