Eggplant
Eggplants are great sources of several vitamins & minerals, as well as gut-healthy fiber!
Instructions:
  • Eggplant is a glossy black vegetable that has white flesh with a meaty texture.
  • Choose eggplants that have shiny, smooth skin without bruises or blemishes.

  • Do not cut an eggplant before you store it since it will go bad quickly.
  • For a less bitter tasting eggplant, sprinkle it with salt after cutting into pieces and let it sit for 30 minutes.
  • This will pull out some of the water and make it less likely to absorb a lot of oil while cooking.
  • Rinse the eggplant afterwards to remove most of the salt.
  • Eggplant can be baked, roasted, steamed, or sautéed.
