INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (200g)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (93g)
1/2 cup Chickpeas, canned, drained (125g)
4 ounces Grilled Chicken Breast (113g)
1 ounce Feta Cheese (28g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (5g)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (75g)
1/4 medium Red Onion (25g)
1 tablespoon Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Cut the eggplant in half lengthwise and score the flesh lightly with a knife. Drizzle with half the olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender.
Meanwhile, prepare the quinoa as per package instructions if not already cooked.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, chickpeas, diced cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, crumbled feta cheese, and fresh basil. Season with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Slice the grilled chicken breast into small strips and fold into the quinoa mixture to boost protein content.
Once the eggplant halves are roasted, spoon the quinoa and chicken mixture generously into the eggplant boats.
Return the stuffed eggplants to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Serve warm and enjoy your nutrient-packed herb-roasted quinoa stuffed eggplant boats.
