Low carb aubergine tart (eggplant) is a low carb copy of one I had in Paris. Amazing stuff! 7.2 net carbs per serving. From lowcarb-ology.com

Every Wednesday for the next several weeks I will be recreating low-carb versions of the food I enjoyed in France here on Lowcarb-ology AND regular versions on my other blog, Restless Chipotle. Hopefully I can keep up!

It was a wonderful ten days! We started in Paris and then traveled north, east, south, and finally back to Paris for my birthday before flying home. I don’t know if it’s my hypo-thyroid issues or just normal post vacation let down but it has been extremely hard to get back into the swing of things here! It didn’t help that I had assignments due for clients within a couple of days of getting home so there was no easing back into my work schedule!

The food there was glorious and I did enough walking that I didn’t gain a pound!

I had this aubergine tart our second day in Paris not far from here... That's Notre Dame in the background. Lowcarb-ology.com
I had the aubergine tart our second day in Paris not far from here. Notre Dame is in the background.

The second day in Paris we stopped at a tiny shop for lunch. It was a sandwich shop and the foods were displayed in a glass case like a bakery. When I saw the aubergine tart I knew immediately that I was going to have it. There was no crust — the filling was just held in parchment paper in a small cardboard form. It was sprinkled with crumbs and when I pushed my fork into it steam burst out fragrant with oregano and garlic. The eggplant was creamy and the whole thing was just indescribable! It was perfect with my Merlot.

This version has all of those flavors but without the carbs. I’ve substituted Parmesan cheese for the crumbs and given it even more flavor. I made these in individual sized tart pans but you can make it in a regular pie pan. Depending on the size of the tarts you’ll get four or six servings.

I like the individual sized tart pans for this recipe. Maybe it’s because that’s how I had it in Paris? I don’t know but it’s such a pretty presentation. Herbes de Provence is imperative for the flavor in this recipe. The thing is the Herbes de Provence blend is different with every manufacturer.
