Recipe of the Week: Italian Themed Eggplant!

Let’s face it…eating kale and broccoli every day is boring. When you’re in training for competition, you have to find creative ways of getting in your fibrous carbohydrates.

To my surprise and delight this recipe was so yummy!! Thanks to Roxie for the heads up.

Ingredients

1 Eggplant

1 Fresh Tomato (I like Canned Diced Tomatoes. I used the Italian seasoned diced tomatoes from Safeway)

Fresh Basil

I can’t believe it’s not butter spray

Garlic Salt

Oregano

Pepper

Directions

Preheat Oven to about 350 degrees

Peel Eggplant in stripes (Keeping the skin on makes it too tough)

Cut Eggplant into large rounds

Spray the Eggplant with I can’t believe it’s not butter

Sprinkle with Garlic Salt, Paper, and oregano

Add Diced Tomatoes

Finish off with Fresh Basil

Bake for Approximately 15-20 minutes (Depending on your oven)

For those of us in prep mode it’s a way to pretend you’re eating pizza! It is also a wonderful change to add to your veggie rotation.
