My most viral recipe reel of 2025 was this Eggplant Wrap which has been viewed over 6 million times since I posted it 2 months ago. 

I had originally made the viral zucchini wrap and absolutely loved it. I was so intrigued I knew I had to make it using an eggplant and was equally as impressed…. and basically since then I haven’t stopped making them.  Basically you bake 1 layer of thinly sliced eggplant rounds with a melted layer of mozzarella cheese on top.  This brilliant concoction makes up the ‘bread’ of the sandwich.  I filled this one with a layer of basil pesto, some herbed ricotta, roasted peppers, sautéed grape tomatoes that had burst, arugula, garlic broccoli rabe and balsamic glaze…. Basically whatever you have! 
I kept this vegetarian, but you can easily add salami, prosciutto, mortadella or turkey.  It’s just so versatile.

.
Preheat oven to 350F. Using a mandolin or a sharp knife, slice a  eggplant thin (I used one that was on the thinner side). Arrange on a parchment lined baking sheet in a rectangle, being careful to make sure the ends of each circle are touching. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil.  Sprinkle with 1 cup shredded mozzarella . Bake for 25 minutes or until the cheese is golden. 
Remove from oven. Invert it and flip it over.  Fill it with whatever you want!
