Baked Stuffed Eggplant

March 30, 2019 by eeturner Leave a Comment

Savory, tender pieces of roasted eggplant, piled high with a cheese and herb stuffing.

For a quick and light weeknight (or weekend) meal, these Stuffed Eggplant Rounds are a great go-to meal. They are simple to prepare, with minimal prep and the oven does most of the work. When they are cooking, they fill you home with a delightful aroma and when they are done, they are a beautiful display worthy of any crowd you might have for dinner.

Here’s the recipe:

Stuffed Eggplant Rounds

  • 2 medium size eggplant
  • 2 c chopped tomato
  • 2 c lor peynir (sub: feta or ricotta cheese)
  • 1 c chopped parsley
  • 6 scallions (chopped)
  • 1/3 c + 3 T plain breadcrumbs
  • 4 TBSP olive oil
  • 2 TBSP thick yogurt
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • salt (to taste)

To make the filling: mix together the lord peynir, parsley, scallions, 1/3 c breadcrumbs, 2 TBSP olive oil, 2 TBSP thick yogurt, 1 tsp dried oregano and salt (to taste).

Place the chopped tomatoes at the bottom of your cooking pan. Drizzle over 1 TBSP of olive oil and season with 1 tsp of oregano and salt. Stir well.

Pre-heat the oven on 375F/190C.

To prepare the eggplant: Slice the eggplant into thick round pieces. Season with salt and then one by one, spoon the filling on top of each eggplant round to create a nice mound of filling. Sprinkle over a few breadcrumbs on top and bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes or until the eggplant is tender and the filling is lightly browned.


Serve and Enjoy with the eggplant and some of the tomatoes.

Bon Appetit!
