Stuffed Eggplant
4 servings. Each serving equals four 5 A Day servings.
Ingredients
1½ cups bread crumbs
2 eggplants
2 tomatoes, diced
½ cup green bell pepper, diced
½ cup onion, diced
1/3 cup celery, diced
1/8 Tbsp. salt
¼ Tbsp. black pepper
2 Tbsp. fresh parsley, minced
2 Tbsp. parmesan cheese
Vegetable cooking spray
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut eggplants in half lengthwise. Scoop out and save the flesh,
leaving the shells 3/8-inch thick. If necessary, trim a small piece
off the bottom of each shell so it won't tip over. Set aside.
Coat large skillet with vegetable cooking spray. Chop up reserved
eggplant and add to skillet. Add tomato, bell pepper, onion, celery,
salt, and black pepper. Place skillet over medium heat; cover and cook
about 5 minutes, until vegetables are tender.
Remove skillet from heat. Stir in bread crumbs and parsley. Spoon
mixture into the hollow eggplant shells.
Arrange stuffed shells in a shallow baking dish coated with vegetable
spray. Sprinkle 1½ tsps Parmesan on top of each shell. Bake for 25
minutes, until filling heats through and top is golden brown.
