About Eggplant grilled with parmesan cheese

Eggplant Grilled with Parmesan Cheese is a flavorful dish showcasing the earthy richness of Mediterranean cuisine. Tender slices of eggplant are lightly seasoned and grill-roasted to enhance their natural sweetness, then topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese for a savory finish. This dish is packed with nutrients—eggplant provides dietary fiber, antioxidants like nasunin, and essential vitamins such as B6 and potassium, while Parmesan contributes a dose of calcium and protein. Its preparation method—grilling rather than frying—ensures it remains lower in fat, making it a heart-healthy option when enjoyed in moderation. While the cheese adds depth, it also introduces sodium, so those monitoring salt intake may wish to adjust portions. Ideal as a side dish or light entrée, this simple yet satisfying recipe embodies the balance of nutrition and indulgence characteristic of Mediterranean-style eating.
