In fact, the place they all come together is pretty simple: no grains, no sugars, no processed foods, all real foods.

Eggplant Involtini with Pesto Filling Gluten-Free & Low-Carb Recipe by Tracey Rollison from CarbSmart Low-Carb & Gluten-Free Holiday Entertaining. Eggplant Involtini, often called “rollatini” in the U.S., are tasty little rolls of lusciousness. They possess the best of eggplant Parmegiana plus the cream layer of lasagne, all wrapped up into a bite-sized package! Okay, carryable at least, because the size really depends on how large of an eggplant you choose. They’re served as appetizers or a vegetable side, but can be a main course. They do very well any way you serve them. The first time I served these to my family, my son immediately claimed all of them. Including the ones on his sisters’ plates.
