Eggplant Mini Pizzas
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Eggplant mini-pizzas are a great option for a hearty dinner or a festive appetizer, as they are perfect for serving in individual portions. Be sure to leave the eggplants in salted water for a while, so that the excess bitterness is removed. Moreover, you can use any favorite cheese variety here, which will only enhance the dish's flavor. I recommend garnishing the pizzas with basil leaves, as this makes the dish look much more festive. The dish is ready to be served.
