Stuffed eggplant is a flavorful dish enjoyed in various cuisines, including Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Indian. Typically, eggplants are halved, hollowed, and filled with a mixture of ingredients such as seasoned vegetables, grains like rice or quinoa, legumes like lentils, herbs, and sometimes ground meat or cheese. Rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants from the eggplant itself, this dish supports digestive health and provides essential nutrients like potassium and vitamin C. When prepared with olive oil, nuts, and herbs, it contributes healthy fats and anti-inflammatory benefits. However, creamy cheeses or excessive oil can increase calorie and fat content. Versatile and customizable, stuffed eggplant can be tailored to vegetarian, vegan, or protein-rich diets, making it a nutritious option when balanced with wholesome ingredients.
