I love eggplant and make it in any way, shape or form. This is great for a light meal or an appetizer.Thinly slice your eggplant and place slices in boiling water for 2 min. drain on paper towels.
Place slices criss cross and layer tomato, basil and fresh mozzarella, then fold up into a neat little package.
Brush with olive oil and broil for 5 min, on each side.
Serve warm with a light tomato sauce, or a tomato based vinaigrette. Garnish with toasted pine nuts.They’re so tender and flavorful, they just melt in your mouth!!
Buon Appetito!!!
I’m Marie, a wife, mother, mother-in-law, and gramma of two beautiful girls. My passion is food, clear and simple but especially Italian food, hence the name of my blog, Proud Italian Cook. I want you to feel right at home here so grab a cup of coffee, I’ll get the pastries, take a look around and enjoy your visit! {
