INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
1 cup Roasted Eggplant
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the eggplant into rounds or cubes. Toss with 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper, then spread evenly on a baking tray.
Roast the eggplant in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
While the eggplant roasts, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the lean ground beef, season lightly with salt and pepper, and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Stir in the marinara sauce with the ground beef and let it simmer for a few minutes to meld the flavors.
Once the eggplant is roasted, combine it with the beef and marinara mixture in an oven-safe baking dish.
Top the mixture evenly with dollops of plain nonfat Greek yogurt.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, just until the yogurt is warmed through and slightly set.
Remove from the oven, let cool for a couple of minutes, and serve warm.
