1
Preheat oven to 450; heat a small skillet with olive oil and cracked garlic over medium-low heat.
2
Meanwhile, trim ends off eggplants and remove a sliver off one side, so eggplant sits flat while you slice it.

Cut eggplant into 1/2-inch thick slices.
4
Place eggplant slices on cookie sheets; when the garlic sizzles in the oil, use a pastry brush to brush both sides of sliced eggplant with garlic oil.
5
Season eggplant with salt and pepper; roast in oven for 15 minutes until tender, turning once.
6
Meanwhile, place 2 tablespoons of the remaining garlic oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat; to the hot oil add chopped garlic and red onions.
7
Stir/saute garlic/onions for 2-3 minutes, then add in the tomatoes and tomato sauce; season with salt and pepper.
8
Decrease heat and let sauce thicken.
9
Remove eggplant from oven; place open sub rolls on a broiler pan; preheat broiler.
10
Pile layers of eggplant, roasted tomato sauce, and basil into sub rolls, equally dividing ingredients among the rolls.
11
Top subs with Parmigiano and smoked mozzarella.
