Eggplants, along with peppers, are the stars of summer dishes and we can truly create a rainbow of options with these vegetables packed with benefits for our body.

PEPPERS with potassium, iron, magnesium, and calcium provide skin benefits with their antioxidant power and are also great allies against high cholesterol thanks to the presence of flavonoids and capsaicin that fight LDL accumulation in the blood.

FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE STUFFED EGGPLANT BUNDLES RECIPE

  • Wash and slice the eggplants a few millimeters thick, cutting them lengthwise, and blanch them in a lightly oiled, very hot pan.

    Let them soften for 2 to 3 minutes on each side and leave them on a plate for now.

  • Then arrange them on a cutting board to cool completely.

    Next, add a slice of cooked ham and a piece of smoked cheese to each, rolling the eggplant into little rolls and placing them on the baking dish with the seam at the bottom of the pan.

  • Then top each eggplant bundle with a little tomato sauce, a pinch of dried oregano, and season with salt and pepper.

  • Bake this delicious dish with eggplants at 390°F for about 15 minutes or according to your home oven’s characteristics: the smoked cheese just needs to melt, making it a rather quick side!

  • Before serving, add a dash of EVO oil and we’re ready for tasting! Enjoy your eggplant bundles!
