Kid Icarus: Celebrate the Return of the Eggplant Wizard With These Recipes
Today the Kid Icarus series gets a new game for the first time in 20 years. We're celebrating with our favorite eggplant recipes in honor of the original game's eggplant wizard, who was known for turning his enemies into eggplants.
Whether you try Rachael Ray's moussaka lasagna or the Eat-Clean Diet's baba ghanoush spread, these recipes are a delicious way to celebrate the launch of the game.
This spread is perfect for dipping crispy pita chips. Grill the eggplant before peeling it for a delicious smokey flavor.
Lamb, tomatoes and eggplant are added to this Greek moussaka inspired lasagna dish. Lightly toasted Mediterranean flatbread adds texture in place of traditional pasta.
You won't sacrifice taste in this flavorful low-calorie dish. Lightly salt the eggplant for 10 minutes prior to cooking to remove some of the water out of the vegetable.
This speedy moussaka is less heavy than the traditional version. Instead of the classic heavy cream sauce, Moulton substituted it with a yogurt, ricotta and feta mixture.
These eggplant and goat cheese sandwiches elevate a boring lunch. Made with pesto and ciabatta bread, these sandwiches are easy to make and look like you bought them from a gourmet market.
Give bland noodles a dose of flavor with this soy-rice vinaigrette. Add sesame seeds and cilantro for an extra garnish and flavor boost.
