This version of an Italian classic, Parmigiana di Melanzane, shows you how. Simply slice your aubergine and bake in the oven or air fryer, layer them with a classic red sauce and cheese, then bake until bubbling hot. Once ready, remove it from the oven, and top with basil pesto for a fresh bite and crunchy chickpeas for a texture. Absolutely divine, and even better with a glass of red wine!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/recipe\/parmigiana-di-melanzane\/\">GET THE RECIPE<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4>Vegan Roast Veggie Bowl with Quinoa &amp; Crunchy Chickpeas<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/recipe\/vegan-roast-veggie-bowl-with-quinoa\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-80781\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/VeggieBowl-Westfalia-Sept2020-1x560-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/VeggieBowl-Westfalia-Sept2020-1x560-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/VeggieBowl-Westfalia-Sept2020-1x560-1-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/VeggieBowl-Westfalia-Sept2020-1x560-1-940x526.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAnother wholesome dish made even better with crunchy chickpeas; not only a great addition to this Roast Veggie Bowl, they can also be enjoyed as a light snack.
