The vegetable filling for this wrap takes its cues from the classic Provencal stew. Soluble fiber in eggplant and chickpeas may reduce LDL ("bad") cholesterol; lycopene in tomatoes can help protect against cancer.

The Middle Eastern staples eggplant and chickpeas plus a garlicky yogurt sauce give oomph to these simple vegetarian wraps. Be sure to get a good char on the eggplant and use ripe, juicy summer tomatoes.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 small clove garlic
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup Greek yogurt
Kosher salt
One 15.5-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed, drained and patted dry
1 medium eggplant, sliced into 3/4-inch thick rounds (about 14 ounces)
3 tablespoons olive oil
Four 10-inch soft tortillas
4 teaspoons dried oregano
1 ripe medium tomato, diced (about 8 ounces)
2 small Persian cucumbers, quartered lengthwise and thinly sliced (about 4 ounces)
1/2 small heart romaine, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Heat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Grate the garlic into a medium bowl and pour the lemon juice over. Let stand about 2 minutes. Whisk in the yogurt, 2 tablespoons water and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Put the chickpeas in a large bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup of the yogurt sauce and set aside.
  • Brush the eggplant slices generously with olive oil on one side and season with salt. Grill oiled-side down until charred, rotating once to char more of the surface, 2 minutes total. Brush oil on the top, sprinkle with salt, flip, and grill until charred and very tender, another 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the eggplant to a cutting board, chop roughly, and then stir gently into the chickpea mixture. Taste the mixture and season with salt, if needed.
  • To make the wraps, spread 2 tablespoons of the yogurt sauce on one of the tortillas. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the oregano. Form about 1 scant cup of the chickpea mixture into a log across the wrap about 3 inches from the bottom, leaving a 1-inch border on each side. Top with some chopped tomatoes and a little salt, then add some cucumber and lettuce. Fold the sides of the wrap over the ends of the chickpea mixture, then roll up tightly from the bottom. Repeat for the remaining tortillas and filling. Cut each in half on the bias, and serve.

EGGPLANT WRAPS

Categories     Bake     Fry     Vegetarian     Dinner     Lunch     Cheddar     Pine Nut     Eggplant     Spinach

Yield Serves 4 (4 wraps per person)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 medium/large eggplants
2 tablespoons sunflower oil or light olive oil
1 tablespoon dried mixed herbs
14 ounces spinach
16 sundried tomato pieces, marinated in olive oil
3 tablespoons pine nuts, lightly toasted in a hot frying pan (no oil needed)
5 ounces sharp Cheddar, cut into 16 slices
pinch sea salt
black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. You will need a large non-stick baking sheet.
  • Cut the woody top off each eggplant and discard. Slice each eggplant lengthwise into 8 pieces (16 in all) about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Mix the oil and the herbs together in a small bowl or cup. Lightly brush each slice of eggplant with the herby oil on both sides. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and lay as many pieces of the eggplant in the pan as will comfortably fit. Fry each side until golden brown and softened, which should be about 3 minutes per side. When all the slices are cooked, set them aside.
  • Wash the spinach well in cold running water, then toss it in a hot medium saucepan (using just the water that is clinging to the leaves) until wilted, and drain off the excess liquid.
  • Now, assemble each wrap by taking 1 slice of the cooked eggplant and placing a little of the wilted spinach on one side. Then lay a piece of sundried tomato on top, sprinkle a few toasted pine nuts over it, and top with a slice of Cheddar. Fold the eggplant over to form the wrap, then place it on a large non-stick baking sheet.
  • Repeat this until all 16 wraps are assembled and placed side by side on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt and a grind of fresh black pepper.
  • Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, until the cheese has melted and is bubbling, and serve immediately.

SMOKY EGGPLANT AND MELON WRAPS



Smoky Eggplant and Melon Wraps image

The sweetness of the cantaloupe really pairs well with the spicy smoky bite of the eggplant. I made extra, since I gave the left overs for hubby to take to work. I used Xylitol instead of brown sugar to keep this sugar free.

GRILLED EGGPLANT WRAPS WITH LEMON AIOLI, FETA, AND MINT



Grilled Eggplant Wraps with Lemon Aioli, Feta, and Mint image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 medium eggplants, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 medium red onions, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
4 (10-inch) flour tortillas
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 small garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup chilled crumbled feta cheese
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and preheat a charcoal grill and let the coals burn down to a gray ash. (Alternatively, preheat a broiler and lightly oil a broiling pan.)
  • Brush the eggplant slices with the 1/2 cup oil and season both sides with salt and pepper. Grill or broil on a rack set 5 to 6 inches from the heat, turning once, until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet to cool. Brush the onions with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill or broil until brown and tender, about 5 minutes. Wrap the tortillas in foil and heat in the oven for 5 minutes.
  • Whisk the mayonnaise with the garlic and lemon juice in a small bowl to make the aioli. Spread 2 tablespoons of the aioli over each tortilla. Cover the bottom 1/3 of each tortilla with 1/4 of the eggplant and 1/4 of the onions. Sprinkle on a 12/4 of the cheese and top with mint leaves. To make the wrap, fold in the two sides of the tortilla. Roll away from you, tucking in the edges to form a tight cylinder. Wrap the cylinder in foil and cut in 1/2 diagonally right through the foil. The foil becomes the holder to be peeled away as the wrap is consumed. Serve the wrap hot or at room temperature.
