STUFFED EGGPLANT with low glycemic index and gluten-free quinoa

Recipe taken from the website https://zerosucreetigbas.fr/aubergine-farcie-au-quinoa-ig-bas-et-sans-gluten/ Lately, I've been really into stuffed vegetables ????. I love it ❤. Plus, it looks quite fancy on the plate ???? I flavored it with a little bit of green anise ????, which adds a subtle freshness that is really delicious. Even my husband, who doesn't like anise, approves ???? For the kids, I always serve it in a deconstructed way ???? and I remove the skin of the eggplant, it goes down better.
