INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup cooked lentils (150g)
1 cup diced eggplant (82g)
2 large eggs
0.5 cup nonfat Greek yogurt (120g)
0.5 cup tomato sauce (122g)
0.5 medium onion, diced (50g)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh basil
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, Sauté until translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the diced eggplant to the skillet, season lightly with salt and pepper, and cook until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
In a bowl, combine the cooked lentils, sautéed eggplant mixture, and tomato sauce. Stir in chopped fresh basil. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Transfer the lentil and eggplant mixture into a small casserole dish. Create two small wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each well.
Place the dish in the oven and bake until the eggs are set and the casserole is heated through, about 15-20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Dollop the nonfat Greek yogurt on top before serving to add a refreshing, creamy finish.
