Long Eggplant Melt


Eggplant melts are becoming a favourite dish of mine. This time I used the long eggplants that were on sale. I simply sliced them in half, baked them for half an hour at 350F with olive oil, salt, pepper and basil. Then it was the fun part of topping them like pizzas. I like to use chopped onions, tomatoes, olives, hot peppers and finally slices of cheese. Bake for another 15 minutes at 350F.  They tasted good with everyday cheddar cheese this time.

They are filling and low carb.

This looks so good. I have never had eggplant but this sounds delicious. You must be a good cook - seems like you try a lot of different things. I am not a cook - I use to cook for the family but wasn't very creative about it.
