Marillenknödel

Pour moi qui suis quenellophile, c’est une aubaine. J’étais restée les yeux écarquillées quand j’avais découvert cette version chez Delicious Days, blog Munichois dont je suis une grande fan.

Grilled Zucchini & Eggplant Parmesan Recipe {Vegetarian}

This grilled and healthy version of Eggplant Parmesan is nothing short of spectacular, in both presentation and flavor. The Italian-influenced herbs remind me of some of the best Eggplant Parmesan dishes I’ve eaten in restaurants and at friends’ tables, but the calorie and fat total rings in far less in this version.

Mushy lentils come from overcooking or sitting on a warming plate for too long. Cooking lentil soup at home, you also have the advantage of your spice cupboard. Cumin is always a winner, and I like to add a good scoop of smoked paprika to give the earthy flavor of the lentils a little depth. There's not much you can do about the brown color, however.
