Easy Eggplant Salad with Green Bell Peppers
- 3 Eggplants
- 3 Green bell peppers
- 5 cloves garlic
- 3 tablespoons olive oil

- Lemon for decoration
Cut up the eggplants into 1 inch circles. Then put them in the oven to cook.
After one side cooks, be sure to flip over the eggplants so we have a well-cooked salad!
Then, in a bowl, set the eggplants aside while you chop the green bell peppers, and the garlic. Mix them all together.
