Bake the eggplants for 25 minutes.

6.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Prepare the Quinoa

1.

Boil two cups of water.

2.

Add 1/2 teaspoon oil and one cup quinoa.

3.

Lower the flame and cook for 15 minutes, until the water is absorbed.

Prepare the Fried Onions

1.

Spray a frying pan with olive oil.

2.

Add three frozen onion cubes and fry at medium heat.

Assemble the Eggplant Margarita

1.

Top the eggplants with quinoa, marinara sauce, fried onions, and cheese.

2.

Place in the oven for two to four minutes, until cheese is melted.

3.

Garnish with basil and oregano.
