I have recently become a lover of eggplant. This sounds delicious!

This goes on the table tonight. I have a small garden (gave up the big one several years ago) and have eggplants coming out my ears from 6 plants. This is a must try. Flavor combos can't be beat.

Sounds like something I'd like to fix. Eggplants here yesterday didn't look too good. I'll give it a week or two!

Oh my this sounds good. I have high hopes that my little garden will provide me with 3 different types of eggplant. If they all do ripen I'll need plenty of these recipes on hand. This seems to be right up my alley!

I've never cooked with eggplant much, but as you know I have at least one to figure out something to do with it.... this one sounds good. :)
