INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (300g)
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (92g)
1/2 cup cooked Lentils (100g)
1/3 cup cooked Chickpeas (82g)
1 cup Spinach
1/2 red Bell Pepper
1 small Tomato
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Basil & Oregano)
1 large Poached Egg
0.5 oz Crumbled Feta Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the eggplant in half lengthwise and score the flesh lightly. Drizzle with a small amount of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Roast the eggplant halves on a baking sheet, flesh side up, for about 25-30 minutes until tender.
While the eggplant roasts, mix the cooked quinoa, lentils, and chickpeas in a bowl. Add the chopped spinach, diced red bell pepper, and tomato.
Mince the garlic and chop the fresh herbs, then stir them into the mixture along with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Once the eggplant is roasted, scoop out some of the flesh to create a boat, and gently fold it into the quinoa mixture to enhance flavor and texture.
Spoon the filling evenly into the eggplant boats.
Top each stuffed eggplant with a poached egg and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese.
Serve warm and enjoy your nutrient-packed, herb-roasted quinoa stuffed eggplant boats.
