INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (150g)
½ cup Cooked Quinoa (93g)
½ cup Chickpeas, rinsed (82g)
½ cup Shelled Edamame (78g)
1/3 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese (40g)
1.5 oz Tempeh (42g)
1 tsp Olive Oil (5g)
Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Basil, 2 tbsp)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Slice the eggplant in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the flesh, creating boats. Brush the insides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Place the eggplant halves on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes until slightly softened.
Meanwhile, in a bowl combine the cooked quinoa, chickpeas, edamame, and diced tempeh. Stir in fresh chopped herbs and season with a little salt and pepper.
Once the eggplant is roasted, spoon the quinoa mixture generously into the eggplant boats.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top and return to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the filling is warmed through and the feta starts to soften.
Remove from the oven, garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm.
