- Cut eggplant lengthwise into 8 (1/3-inch-thick) slices.
- Brush both sides of slices with 3 tablespoons oil (total), then season with salt and pepper.
- Grill slices in batches, turning over once and brushing grilled sides with some of remaining oil, until golden brown and tender, about 4 minutes, then transfer to a tray.
- While warm spread with the cheese mixture (a little goes a long way).
- Roll eggplant up from the short end.
- Whisk together the oil and vinegar, season with salt and pepper.
- Toss salad greens with just enough oil and vinegar to coat.
