Chef Tips:
- Roasted eggplant skin can be chopped and added to pasta dishes or used as a pizza topping. It can also be seasoned and roasted a second time to make a crunchy snack or topping.
- Yogurt adds creaminess to the baba ghanoush; if you want to make this wrap completely plant-based, substitute your preferred plant-based yogurt or omit it.
- Try using leftover Kalamata dressing as a marinade or on your favorite salad.
- All components can be made ahead of time in larger batches for quick assembly or use in other meals.
