Not everyone loves eggplant, also known as aubergine, but this version is a crowd favorite.

The smoky taste of the grilled eggplant along with the lemony pasta makes this dish deliciously light and satisfying.

The skin on the grilled eggplant should start to shrivel and the shape soften. Be sure to test for doneness by poking with a fork or knife.

When sauteing mushrooms, remember to cook over a medium-high heat, turning often, and do not salt! if you don’t like mushrooms…this dish works great without them.

NOTE: If you don’t like mushrooms…this dish works great without them.

I love mushrooms and used to think that even though they were delicious, they did not offer much nutritional value. I am happy to say that I was wrong.

Many varieties of mushrooms are a great source of Selenium and all varieties provide a host of essential nutrients. Mushrooms are the only plant source that makes bone-loving Vitamin D when exposed to sunlight.

I used Cremini mushrooms in this recipe, which is an adult version of White Button mushrooms that help improve immune function.

In addition, mushrooms contain antioxidants and assist in metabolic processes.

I am so thankful to live in Southern California. Beyond the beautiful weather and beaches is how the Spanish influence has helped to shape the state.

In addition to their dedication to family and friends the Mexican culture also introduced us to amazing foods. Thanks to Soyrizo and avocados, veganizing Mexican favorites is simple.

As a note there are varying degrees of spiciness in different brands of Soyrizo. I have found the best and mildest to be from El Burrito. In addition to being Vegan it is also Organic, Gluten Free, Non-GMO and contains no preservatives.

ENJOY!
