Eggplant Lasagna Recipe - I’ve had eggplant lasagna on many occasions, but always with the noodles, so I decided to use the eggplant in place of the noodles, thus keeping the hearty comfort food a little healthier.
how many does this serve ??0 -

Eggplant steak. Cut nice. thick slices. Add a little bit of olive oil and sprinkle with steak seasonings. Throw them on the grill.0

Try just cubing eggplant or zucchini and then put it in your favorite meat sauce recipe. Skip the noodles, the veggies are enough! I love it, so easy and low carb/cal! Add plenty parmesan, its pretty low cal and high flavor for a cheese :-)0

Ratatouille! It's versatile, and you can keep it vegetarian or add meat; I love making it in the colder months, and it's super easy.
Slice up your eggplant, zucchini, and any other vegetables you wish- I use onion, tomato, and mushrooms;
mince up some fresh garlic, saute in olive oil until golden brown, add vegetables and seasonings- I use oregano, salt, pepper, basil and crushed red pepper
You can add cheese, meat, or pretty much anything else you want, or keep it simple like above. Cook on medium heat until everything is firm but tender.
Enjoy!0 -

Coconut Cilantro Zucchini Noodles
all measurements are approx but go crazy if ya want on seasonings!!!
1- 2 Zucchini (italian squash) ---- julienne w/ skin
1/8 t. Tony Chachere's Seasoning
1/8 t. onion powder
1/8 t. garlic powder
1 T. unsweetened shredded coconut
2 t. coconut flour (bob's red mill brand)
**mix and toss all of above in a ziploc bag or sealed container**
sautee in 1 T. coconut oil
top w/ 1 T. chopped, fresh cilantro
if you do not have a julienne slicer, DO NOT make this--- it will not taste the same! you want it to look like spaghetti.
I make this w/ italian turkey meatballs in sauce --- I DIE! yummeh

Sautéed Garlic Eggplant
Peel and dice 1 large eggplant. Melt 2 tbsp. butter in a saucepan, add 3 tbsp. minced garlic, and sauté until just beginning to turn golden. Add eggplant and continue to cook on medium heat until the eggplant softens. Season with 1 tbsp. garam masala or curry paste/powder.
I like to add 1/4 c. chopped dates to this - the sweetness is an incredible contrast to the smoky spiciness of the garlic and curry and the soft buttery eggplant. Another optional add-in: shredded chicken or pork or a foil packet of tuna. Roll it up in low carb tortillas or spread it on Wasa flatbread crackers.0
