• 15 yellow or red cherry tomatoes, quartered
• 4 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1/2 cup finely chopped Italian parsley
• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
• 2 tablespoon finely julienned fresh basil
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 cups nonfat plain yogurt
• 1/2 cup peeled and diced cucumber
• 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1. Heat oven to 450u0b0F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Poke holes in eggplants with a fork. Roast until they collapse, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool slightly. Cut open, scoop out flesh into a bowl and discard skins. Mix flesh with 4 tablespoon of the lemon juice. Let sit 10 minutes. Place flesh in a fine-mesh strainer; press gently with a large spoon, squeezing out moisture. Chop eggplant. Mix in peppers, tomatoes, garlic, parsley, chives, basil, oil and remaining 2 tablespoon lemon juice. Add salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Mix ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.
3. Reduce heat to 350u0b0F. Coat 1 side of each pita wedge with cooking spray. Sprinkle each sprayed side with Parmesan, seeds and black pepper. Bake on foil until crisp, 6 to 7 minutes. Serve eggplant with pita chips and yogurt sauce on the side.
