INGREDIENTS
1 half medium Eggplant (approx. 150g)
3 ounces Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella (shredded)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tbsp Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the eggplant into 1/4-inch thick rounds and lightly brush both sides with olive oil.
Place the eggplant rounds on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 15 minutes until they start to soften.
While the eggplant is baking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the lean ground turkey until it is fully browned and crumbled. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce on each eggplant slice. Top with a spoonful of the cooked turkey, then sprinkle with low-fat mozzarella.
Return the assembled eggplant slices to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and finish with a light dusting of Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
Serve warm and enjoy your healthy twist on Eggplant Parmesan!
