I sometimes add about 1/2 teaspoon or more of Old Bay Seasoning to this recipe to make it taste like mock oyster pie.

CHEESY AUBERGINE



Cheesy Aubergine image

Tastes like enchiladas! Yummy and healthier than regular enchiladas. Adapted from Sunset. *This has become my most popular recipe posted here. I've made it slightly different ways over the years. I sprinkle the oiled eggplant with garlic salt now. It's also great with a can of diced tomatoes and 1tbsp of tomato paste, extra cumin, garlic, dried onions, salt and cilantro. I also use reduced-fat cheese now. If you would like it spicier add some jalapenos. I love to eat it along an undressed salad of romaine, purple cabbage and grape tomatoes and eat bites of the salad and eggplant together with sour cream. Many people think it needs to be heartier so feel free to add beans, ground beef or chicken but I really don't think it needs it. It's also great served with rice.

EASY EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) CASSEROLE



Easy Eggplant (Aubergine) Casserole image

The technique may seem a little strange here, but it is not unlike making a dressing or stuffing for poultry. The end result is a delicious vegetarian main dish for the fall. It has a rich taste and meaty texture; some of my vegetarian friends were very suspicious while eating it, but I wouldn't fool them!

EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) & HERB STUFFING CASSEROLE



Eggplant (Aubergine) & Herb Stuffing Casserole image

This is the final recipe I am entering from the "1 of a Kind" cookbook of the Junior League of Mobile, AL. It is yet another eggplant recipe, but 1 I found especially appealing for its use of prepared stuffing mix & simple ingredients w/a quick & easy prep. I have not tried this, but hope some of you will give it a try & enjoy the outcome.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large eggplants
1 1/3 cups Pepperidge Farm Herb Stuffing (divided)
1 medium onion (chopped)
1/2 green bell pepper (chopped)
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes (drained, or use 3-4 fresh tomatoes, seeded & chopped)
8 ounces mozzarella cheese (approx 2 1/2 cups, shredded or grated)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Peel, cube & parboil eggplant for 5 min in boiling water. Drain well & set aside.
  • Butter a 2 qt baking dish. Begin by sprinkling 2/3 cup of stuffing mix on the bottom & then place 1/2 of the eggplant on top of the stuffing.
  • Distribute entire amt of onion, bell pepper & tomato evenly over the eggplant & then 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese over that.
  • Then layer on the remainder of the stuffing mix, eggplant & mozzarella cheese (in that order) & top evenly w/Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake for 30 min or till hot & bubbly. Serve immediately.
  • NOTE #1: This is 1 of several recipes I have seen lately to suggest parboiling eggplant. I have always sauteed eggplant in olive oil till just slightly tender for such uses & assume that can be done here as well if your pref.
  • NOTE #2: While not a part of the recipe, the use of garlic here would be a must for me. If you agree, then lightly sprinkle garlic powder (or salt if your choice) over the onion, bell pepper & tomato layer b4 completing assembly of the casserole.
