Eggplant Pizza

If you are like me and can’t live without pizza; you should try this recipe. In this recipe I substituted traditional pizza dough for eggplant based dough. Eggplant pizza dough reduces the calories in half and it taste delicious. Ingredients: 2 large eggplants 1 egg white 1 TSP powdered vegetable stock 20 slices of light turkey ham (optional) 2 sliced tomatoes 1 TSP shredded light parmesan cheese 1 TSP oregano 2 minced garlic cloves 1 slice of whole wheat bread (shredded) Cut the eggplants lengthwise or round (it’s just preference). Wash it and let it soaking in salted water for 1 hour and dry it very well. Eggplant should be totally dry. Put the eggplant on a cooking sheet without crowded it and bake it @ 350 F for about 30 minutes. After that arrange the eggplant on a pizza pan one piece besides the other, all in one only layer using the egg white with a brush to keep it together. Sprinkle powdered vegetable stock, the turkey ham if using it and tomatoes. Sprinkle parmesan cheese, oregano, minced garlic and shredded whole wheat bread. Bake it on a 350 F preheated oven for 30 minutes and enjoy it! An excellent choice: 1 Normal slice of pizza = 485 cal 1 Eggplant pizza slice = 289 cal
