INGREDIENTS

●
1 medium to large eggplant
●
1 package (8 ounces) SWEET EARTH Enlightened Foods Ground Chipotle Style Seitan
●
2 to 3 large tomatoes
●
1 to 2 large garlic cloves
●
Fresh parsley

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

MAKE IT

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Step 2

Rinse the eggplant and pat dry with paper towel. Cut the eggplant into thin slices.

Step 3

Brush each eggplant slice with olive oil; season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Cut tomatoes into thin rings. Finely chop the garlic, parsley and basil leaves.

Step 5

Place the eggplant on a parchment paper-lined baking pan. Stuff eggplant slices with seitan, tomato, garlic, parsley and basil. Drizzle with more oil.

Step 6

Bake for about one hour. If there is still liquid in the pan lower the oven temperature to 200° F and bake 15 minutes longer or until all liquid has evaporated. Length of baking depends on the size of the eggplant. Just another way to enjoy Earth’s bounty 🙂
