Number Of Ingredients 7

2 eggplants, halved lengthwise
1 head garlic
1 cup nonfat plain yogurt
⅓ cup chopped fresh parsley
¼ cup tahini
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

I'm not usually a fan of eggplant, but this dish has changed my mind. The roasting process brings out the eggplant's natural sweetness and caramelizes it slightly, which gives it a really delicious flavor. The tahini and yogurt add a creamy richness
