Chopped Eggplant, Almond & Herb Salad #vegetarian #healthy

I love thinking of plate of mixed greens plans that are one of a kind and not lettuce based. This eggplant serving of mixed greens is such a victor. It's totally delightful and pressed with such a lot of flavor and surface.

In the past I've just at any point utilized slender cuts of eggplant in plates of mixed greens, which are acceptable, however additional tedious to cook. By cutting the eggplant into little shapes, it cooks rapidly, but on the other hand is an incredible thick base for a serving of mixed greens.

The eggplant is rapidly sautéed until delicate and afterward hurled in a cumin, lemon, garlic and nectar sauce. In the event that you are veggie lover you can without much of a stretch swap the nectar for maple syrup or another sugar of decision. The cubed eggplant retains a portion of the sauce with the goal that each chomp is brimming with season. The eggplant is then hurled with toasted almonds, red onion, and loads of mint and parsley, which includes incredible freshness.
