Come fall in love with the flavors of this Greek Marinated Roasted Eggplant Salad! This copycat recipe comes from an eggplant salad I had in Santorini, Greece. It's loaded with fresh vegetables, soaked in a delicious balsamic lemon dressing, with tons of flavorful Mediterranean herbs.

Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds eggplant diced into 1 inch cubes
- 1 red bell pepper diced into 1 inch cubes
- 1 green bell pepper diced into 1 inch cubes
- 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil divided
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh-squeezed
- 1 tablespoon crushed garlic cloves
- ⅓ cup fresh basil leaves chopped
- 2 teaspoons Greek seasoning click link for the recipe
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Toss the diced eggplant and bell peppers with 2 tablespoons olive oil.
- Arrange the eggplant and peppers in a single layer on a baking sheet, and into the oven for 20 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, crushed garlic cloves, chopped basil and Greek seasoning.
- When the eggplant and peppers come out of the oven, add them to the bowl with the marinade and toss to coat.
- Cover and place the salad in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or up to 24 hours, to marinate before serving.
Notes
- To replace the Greek seasoning, you can combine 1 tablespoon dried oregano and 1 tablespoon dried parsley. It won't be as flavorful as the Greek seasoning, but it will work in a pinch!
- This recipe will stay good in the fridge for up to 1 week. Make it ahead, or store leftovers, in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days.
- This eggplant salad recipe is naturally vegan, gluten free and whole30 approved.
