Eggplant season is in full swing, and we couldn’t be happier about it! These glossy purple beauties are a food-lover’s dream, and especially for vegetarians since eggplant boasts a “meaty,” toothsome vibe that can make meatless meals especially hearty.
So how do we love our eggplant best? Let us count the ways — 20 of them, to be exact. Bring on the aubergines! Here are 20 of our favorite vegetarian eggplant recipes.
Recipe Title: Stuffed Miso Eggplant
Description: It doesn’t get much better than miso-seasoned walnuts served up in perfectly ripe eggplant boats. The topper (literally)? A colorful cherry tomato salad. Summer bliss.

August 12, 2014 at 11:59 amThese recipes look quite wonderful! Eggplant (or aubergine as we call it over here) can be brilliant when done well. Definitely making the bolognese.
I think my favourite “eggplant” recipe is caponata!
