Ingredients

  • 1 count eggplant
  • 6 count eggs
  • 10 oz hummus
  • 3 tbsp tahini
  • 1 count cucumber
  • 3 count roma tomatoes
  • 1 bunch fresh parsley
  • 4 count pita bread
  • 1 count lemons
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt

Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 450°F. Cut the eggplant into 1/2-inch rounds, brush both sides with oil, salt them, and roast 20 minutes, flipping once, until soft and browned.
  2. Meanwhile boil the eggs 10 minutes, then cool in ice water, peel, and slice.
  3. Dice the cucumber and tomatoes with the parsley and toss with lemon juice, oil, and salt.
  4. Thin the tahini with lemon juice and water to a drizzle.
  5. Spread hummus in bowls or pitas, then add the eggplant, eggs, and salad, and drizzle with tahini.
  6. Picky eater tip: serve the hummus, pita, and sliced eggs plain on the side.
  7. Make ahead: roast the eggplant and boil the eggs up to 2 days ahead and chill them. Keep the chopped veggies and tahini sauce separate until serving.

On the side: Fresh fruit (2 min)

1 lb fruit (grapes or apples)

  1. Wash and slice the fruit and put it on the table.
