Karina’s Kitchen

This rustic, simple dish is hearty and delicious- without being heavy. Add crumbled goat cheese, if you like,

ingredients

  • 2 medium firm eggplants
  • Sea salt
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3/4 pound ground organic free-range beef or buffalo meat
  • 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon marjoram or basil
  • 1 teaspoon thyme

notes

Don't care for beef? Use ground turkey instead. If you'd like to serve this dish with a grain it pairs well with brown rice or cooked quinoa pilaf.
