On a mission to find new vegetable side dish ideas, and a little inspiration from a pizza date night, I came up with a new fan favorite in our house; Balsamic Roasted Eggplant & Tomatoes. This dish is SO easy to make, super healthy, is filling, requires minimal ingredients, and packs tons of flavor…can it get any better than that?
Balsamic Roasted Eggplant & Tomatoes
Ingredients:
1 medium size eggplant
½ package of cherry tomatoes halved
olive oil
balsamic vinegar
garlic powder
sea salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
- Cut the eggplant into a bunch of round slices and lay flat on a sprayed baking sheet then top with the halved cherry tomatoes
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Brush the mixture on top of the eggplant and tomato slices then sprinkle with garlic powder, sea salt, and pepper
- Place in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown
Serve and Enjoy 🙂
