Easy, Easy,Easy!! I do these in my toaster oven if not making a bunch.<\/p>\n
What do you always see in the produce section in the summer months? I’ll tell you… eggplant, tomatoes and basil! Add garlic and Parmesan cheese and what’s not to like??<\/strong><\/p>\n Perfect for an easy side, (oh I think I mentioned easy!). I love this recipe, ( if you can call it that), and it reheats well too!<\/p>\n I try and use baby eggplants or Japanese. Plan according to size of the eggplants your using for serving portions.<\/p>\n Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n 2 Eggplants (amount depends on size), if I’m using super small baby’s I will use about 4-6<\/p>\n 2 large chopped tomatoes<\/p>\n 4 large chopped garlic cloves or to your liking<\/p>\n 1\/2 cup chopped basil, or more to your liking<\/p>\n olive oil<\/p>\n salt and pepper<\/p>\n Red pepper flakes ( optional)<\/p>\n 1\/2 cup Parmesan cheese<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Instructions:<\/strong><\/p>\n Pretty much this is an eyeball thing. Make these according to your likes!<\/p>\n 1: Slice eggplants in 1\/2 length wise<\/p>\n 2: Sprinkle each slice on flesh side with salt, ( this will pull out the bitterness of the eggplants, If using little baby’s you can omit this process). Let sit for about 10 min. then rinse \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 to\u00a0 remove salt and pat dry.<\/p>\n 3: Drizzle olive oil over eggplants then sprinkle with tomatoes, garlic, basil, some salt and pepper, red pepper flakes if using.<\/p>\n 4: Top with Parmesan cheese.<\/p>\n 5: Wrap these beauties in foil and bake at 375 about 50 minutes or till tender when squeezed.<\/p>\n 6: Serve as they are or place under broiler to brown cheese. Top with more basil before serving if you wish!<\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0 YUMMY!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Easy, Easy,Easy!!
