I like simple recipes that don’t require hours in the kitchen, but still manage to impress with their taste. Baked eggplant stuffed with cottage cheese is exactly that kind of dish. While the eggplants bake and become soft and flavorful, the cottage cheese and vegetable filling takes on a creamy texture and an inviting aroma. I usually prepare them in the evening when I want a quick dinner that looks good and is filling. Served hot, straight from the oven, with a fresh salad on the side, they are simply delicious.

Baked eggplant stuffed with cheese is an ideal choice for a light and nutritious meal. It is quick to prepare, uses readily available ingredients, and perfectly combines the intense flavor of eggplant with the creamy cheese filling. A simple yet refined recipe, also suitable for vegetarians.
