Ingredients
1large eggplant
12mediumtomatoes (4-5 pounds)
2tablespoonsextra-virgin olive oil
1 ¼teaspoonssalt, divided
½teaspoonground pepper, divided
1poundlean ground beef
1mediumonion, grated
2clovesgarlic, finely chopped
3tablespoonsbulgur, preferably fine (see Tip)
1teaspoonground cumin
¼cupchopped fresh mint
¼cupchopped fresh parsley
Directions
Preheat grill to high.
Prick eggplant all over with a fork. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred and tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to cool, then peel. Place the eggplant and accumulated juices in large bowl and mash. Let cool for 10 minutes.
Cut the tops off tomatoes (reserve them). Scoop out the inner flesh with a spoon and place in a blender. Add oil, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and puree until smooth. Spread the sauce in the baking dish. Lightly sprinkle the insides of the tomatoes with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Add beef, onion, garlic, bulgur, cumin and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the eggplant; mix well. Stuff the tomatoes with the filling and replace the tops. Place in the prepared baking dish and cover with foil.
Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until the tomatoes are browned and the liquid has thickened, 30 to 35 minutes more. Sprinkle with mint and parsley.

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.)
