Low GI Eggplant Rolls with Ricotta and Tomato

Taken from the website https://zerosucreetigbas.fr/roules-daubergines-ig-bas-a-la-ricotta-et-tomate/ Absolutely delicious ???? Eggplant has become my favorite vegetable even though I didn't like it before! When poorly cooked, it's "disgusting" as my kids would say ????. But with olive oil and tomato, it becomes sublime and flavorful ???? To make it more approachable, you can remove the skin at the beginning. That's how my kids like it. But I imagine there are eggplant enthusiasts like me ???? so I don't need to convince you that it's good!
