MELANZANE RIPIENE AL FORNO, light, senza carne, senza uova

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: cheddar cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat while maintaining texture.

bread crumbs

🥗Healthier: ground oats

💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Ground oats are a healthier alternative with similar binding properties.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Vegetable oil is often less expensive and has a neutral flavor.

Cut the melanzane in half and scoop out the insides.

Chop the insides of the melanzane and mix with prosciutto, mozzarella, grana, passata, garlic, basil, salt, and olive oil.

Stuff the mixture back into the melanzane halves.

Place the stuffed melanzane in a baking dish and drizzle with olive oil.

Bake in the oven until the melanzane are tender and the top is golden.
