INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (300g)
1 cup Cooked Lentils (198g)
1 cup Mixed Vegetables (180g)
100g Extra Firm Tofu
0.5 tbsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the eggplant in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out some of the inner flesh, creating a boat-like cavity. Reserve the scooped-out eggplant flesh.
Chop the reserved eggplant flesh along with the mixed vegetables into small cubes.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant.
Add the chopped eggplant flesh and mixed vegetables to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes until slightly softened.
Stir in the cooked lentils and crumbled extra firm tofu, mixing well. Season with salt and pepper, and add any additional herbs or spices if desired.
Fill the eggplant halves with the savory lentil-tofu-vegetable mixture, pressing gently to pack the filling.
Place the stuffed eggplant halves on a baking tray, and roast in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the eggplant is tender and the filling is heated through.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
