INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (300g)
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (92g)
1/2 cup cooked Chickpeas (82g)
3 ounces cooked Chicken Breast (85g)
1/4 cup crumbled Feta Cheese (28g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
1/2 Lemon (for zest and juice)
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Basil)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the eggplant in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the flesh to create boats, leaving about a 1/2-inch thick border.
Drizzle the eggplant halves with olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper, and roast in the oven for 20 minutes until softened.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, chickpeas, and shredded chicken breast. Stir in crumbled feta, lemon zest and juice, and chopped fresh herbs.
Spoon the quinoa mixture into the roasted eggplant halves, packing the filling generously.
Return the stuffed eggplant boats to the oven for an additional 10 minutes to meld the flavors.
Serve warm and garnish with extra herbs as desired.
