Eggplant Pizzas
From Lizzie Fuhr, POPSUGAR Fitness
Notes
I kept things simple with grape tomatoes, red onion, and basil, but feel free to top off your eggplant pizzas with whatever toppings you wish. I will definitely be making these again with spinach and crumbled turkey sausage.
Ingredients
- Canola oil spray
1 large eggplant, sliced into 1-inch rounds
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup low-sodium tomato sauce
1 cup low-fat mozzarella shreds
10 grape tomatoes, sliced
1 tablespoon diced red onion
Fresh basil, to garnish
Red pepper flakes, to garnish
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- Lightly spray two baking sheets with canola oil spray, lay out the sliced eggplant, and sprinkle with the sea salt. Bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove the eggplant trays from the oven, and construct your minipizzas. Spread out a heaping tablespoon of tomato sauce, follow with a sprinkle of mozzarella, then a few grape tomato slices, and a sprinkle of red onion on every eggplant round.
- Set the oven to broil, and place the trays back in for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is crisp and bubbling. Watch the oven closely to make sure they don't burn.
- Remove the trays from the oven, top with basil, red pepper flakes, or the garnishes of your choice, and enjoy warm.
