Ingredients
1 package ground turkey (around 375 grams)1 fresh eggplant cubed, salted, rinsed and drained1 package mushrooms (about 500 grams) destemmed and quartered1 red sweet pepper seeded and thickly sliced2 cloves garlic pressed1 can diced tomatoes (about 400 grams)
Directions
The prep time is only that long because I salt the eggplant cubes for 2 or 3 hours before prepping everything else.
Take your mushrooms and pepper and sautee it in a drizzle of olive oil until soft, then add the eggplant and sautee it for another 5 minutes or until soft.
Meanwhile, add another splash of olive oil to a separate pan and sautee the crushed garlic until fragrant, then add the canned tomatoes and the herbs or seasonings of your choice (oregano and basil for a more Italian taste, cumin and coriander for a more Middle Eastern flavor, and etc.). Combine the sauce with the cooked vegetables. Brown the ground turkey while the sauce simmers. Once the turkey is done, combine it with the rest of the sauce.

Serve over couscous or pasta.
