Grilled Summer Vegetable Sandwich (Low Carb)

Delicious vegetables marinated in a balsamic marinade and grilled to perfection makes this sandwich amazingly flavorful. It's now one of my favorite things to eat at lunch time.
It's good. It's SO good.
Grilled Summer Vegetable Sandwiches: (LOW CARB)
Makes 2 sandwiches

1/3 small zucchini, sliced
1/3 small yellow squash, sliced
1/4 red pepper, cut in large chunks
1/4 cup mushrooms, sliced
4 thin slices of tomato
2 TBL+1 TBL balsamic vinegar, divided
1/4 cup olive oil
1 TBL butter
4 slices pepper jack cheese

In a bowl, combine the olive oil and 2 TBL of balsamic vinegar. Add the zucchini, yellow squash and red pepper. Set aside.
In a small skillet, heat the butter and remaining balsamic vinegar over medium-high heat. Saute the mushrooms until they are brown and tender. Remove from heat and cover to keep them warm.
Remove the vegetables from the marinade and grill until golden and tender. (Or you can saute them)
On the bottom pieces of cloud bread, layer each with 2 slices of cheese, 2 slices of tomato, the grilled vegetables and mushrooms. Top with the cloud bread tops.
