Shrimp Stuffed Eggplant

"If you can't find eggplant, this is wonderful in zucchini, too!"

Ingredients :

2 large eggplants, halved lengthwise
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 small onion, grated
1/2 bell pepper, chopped
1/2 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup butter
1 egg, beaten
1/2 pound sharp Cheddar cheese, grated

Instructions :

Prep : 10M	Cook : 4M	Ready in : 50M

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Scoop the pulp from each eggplant, reserving the shells. Place pulp into a pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and transfer eggplant to a large bowl.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and bell pepper until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Add shrimp; cook and stir until cooked through and pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
Mash eggplant thoroughly; add shrimp mixture, tomatoes, butter, and egg and mix well. Stuff eggplant shells with eggplant-shrimp mixture; season with salt and pepper. Top each stuffed eggplant with Cheddar cheese. Place stuffed eggplant in a baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven until filling is cooked through and cheese is bubbling, 20 to 30 minutes.
