Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut the eggplant in half and scoop out the center, leaving enough meat inside the skin so that it holds its shape when baked. Boil the scooped-out center part until very soft, about 10 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium saute pan heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Season the beef with salt and pepper. Add the seasoned ground beef to the pan and saute until all of its liquid is evaporated and the beef begins to brown slightly. Drain the beef, removing the extra, unnecessary fat. Let cool briefly and chop the cooked beef so that there are no large chunks of meat. In another medium saute pan over medium heat add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and saute the onions, peppers and garlic together.
- In a bowl mix together the cooked eggplant, vegetables, cooked beef, herbs, 1 cup of the cheese, bread crumbs, and the egg.
- Fill the scooped-out eggplant halves with this mixture, dividing it evenly among the 2 halves.
- Top with chopped tomatoes and the remaining 1/4 cup of grated cheese, season with salt and pepper, place on an oiled oven tray or baking dish, and bake for 50 minutes in preheated oven. Let cool briefly, slice widthwise and serve.

Steps:
- Remove stems and cut the eggplants in quarters lengthwise. Soak them in lightly salted water for 15 minutes. Drain and dry.
- Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet and brown the cut sides of the eggplant pieces. Use more butter, as needed. Place the eggplant pieces, skin side down, in a suitable baking dish and make a deep slit down the center of each piece to form a pocket for stuffing.
- Add 4 tablespoons butter to the skillet and brown the lamb in it, stirring constantly. Add the onions, green pepper, paprika, salt, black pepper, cinnamon and tomato paste and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Divide the lamb mixture into eight portions and stuff it into the pockets of the eggplant pieces. Cut the tomatoes in half and drape the pieces over the stuffing in the eggplant pieces. Pour the water carefully around the eggplant pieces, cover and bake 45 minutes. Uncover and place under the broiler 5 minutes, or until nicely browned but not blackened. Serve with pilaf.

This is delicious as well as healthy. Although you can use lean ground beef in the recipe, lean ground turkey works beautifully. Grated Parmesan or Romano cheese is optional but adds to the taste. Enjoy!
