Preheat your oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C).
Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving about a 1\/4-inch border. Chop the scooped-out flesh into small pieces and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and saut\u00e9 until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the chopped eggplant flesh to the skillet and cook until it starts to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juices), cooked quinoa or rice, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Place the hollowed-out eggplant halves in a baking dish. Spoon the filling mixture evenly into each eggplant half.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and crumbled feta cheese. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the stuffed eggplants.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggplant is tender and the topping is golden brown<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
