Combine eggplant, onions, corn, 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Transfer to one of the prepared baking sheets (reserve the bowl). Roast on the bottom rack for 10 minutes. Combine chicken, zucchini (or squash), garlic and the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in the reserved bowl.

Arrange 6 tortilla halves on the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Top with 1 1/2 cups of the chicken mixture, then 1/2 cup cheese.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
