Berenjenas Rellenas, or stuffed eggplants, hail from Spanish cuisine and offer a deliciously versatile dish. The eggplant halves are hollowed and filled with a savory mixture, often including minced meat, onions, garlic, tomatoes, and spices, then baked to perfection. Some variations feature vegetarian stuffings like lentils, chickpeas, or cheese, showcasing its adaptability. Eggplants are naturally low in calories and rich in fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins like B6 and K, while the inclusion of vegetables enhances its nutrient profile. Healthy oils, such as olive oil, commonly used in preparation, provide heart-friendly fats. However, some versions can be high in saturated fat or sodium depending on the choice of meat, cheese, or added salt. Opting for lean protein and reducing cheese can make this dish even more nutritious, making it a tasty and health-conscious option rooted in Mediterranean culinary traditions.
