Ingredients:

Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly brush with oil. Set aside. Lightly butter or oil 13 x 9-inch glass or ceramic baking dish.

Directions:

  1. Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add onion; cook 6 minutes until tender. Add garlic, cook 1 minute. Add 1 cup water, quinoa, tomato paste, salt, pepper, and tomatoes. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in basil.
  2. Preheat broiler to high.
  3. Lightly brush both sides of each eggplant with oil and place on prepared baking sheet. Broil 5 inches from heat for 5 minutes on each side or until browned. You may need to do half of eggplant at a time. Set aside.
  4. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
  5. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add mushrooms; cook 8 minutes. Add wine and soy sauce; simmer 4 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in dill.
  6. In a medium mixing bowl combine yogurt, fetta, eggs and egg white, stirring well with a whisk until smooth.
  7. Spread half of the tomato sauce in the bottom of buttered baking dish. Arrange half of eggplant slices over sauce. Spread mushroom mixture over eggplant; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Spoon remaining tomato sauce over cheese; top with remaining eggplant slices. Spoon yogurt mixture evenly over eggplant.
  8. Bake at 350°F for 45 minutes or until topping is lightly browned. If desired, garnish with extra basil leaves.

I like to keep the skin on, but feel free to peel the eggplant if you prefer.
