EGGPLANT HUMMUS
This healthy dip (which we call "hummus ganouj" ) is great with pita or vegetables (baby carrots, sliced bell pepper, cherry tomatoes). If you don't have a blender, finely dice the garlic and mash the chickpeas with a fork, and mix with all the other ingredients. Although the result won't be as creamy, that's how hummus was made before blenders existed.

Steps:
- Pre-heat the oven to 400°F.
- Prick the eggplant with a fork and place on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for about 40 minutes or until it collapses on itself. Slice it open to cool.
- If desired, remove the skin of the eggplant with your hands before adding the flesh to the blender. I like the skin so just drop the whole eggplant in the blender.
- Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. If the hummus is too thick, add more water a tablespoon at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
- If you'd like, garnish with paprika, pine nuts, olive oil, and chopped basil or other herbs.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe eggplants. You should be able to feel the eggplant give slightly when you press it gently.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the eggplant burgers in a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- For a crispier burger, press the eggplant slices between paper towels before cooking to remove excess moisture.
- If you're short on time, you can use store-bought hummus. However, homemade hummus is always best.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to your burger, such as shredded carrots, zucchini, or bell peppers.
- Serve your eggplant hummus burger on a toasted bun with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, and onion.
Conclusion:
The eggplant hummus burger is a delicious, healthy, and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or even as a snack. It's perfect for those who are looking for a meatless meal that's still packed with flavor. So next time you're looking for something new to try, give the eggplant hummus burger a try. You won't be disappointed.
