Slice the zuchinni and eggplant thinly using a vegetable peeler or a sharp knife. Toss in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a foil-lined baking pan and roast in the oven for 10 minutes. Flip them half way.
Slice the baguette in half lengthwise. Brush with olive oil and toast briefly for 1 minute.
Spread the tapenade on the bottom baguette slice. Top with eggplant, salami, bell peppers, zuchnini, and cheese.
