eggplant

[Guest guest]

My 16 year old granddaughter is vegan, but refuses to take dietary

supplements and I worry so much about her getting enough vitimin B.

She came for dinner a few nights ago and I wanted to get some

nutrition into the girl that she doesn't get from her normal diet of

peanut butter, wholewheat toast an pasta with marinara sauce.

Knowing she does not like eggplant, I made a great vegetable and bean

casserole with a spicy tomato sauce. I steamed chunks of eggplant

until tender, then liquified it in the blender and added it to the

sauce. She loved it and got her vitimin B without knowing it.

Now I am wondering if I can use liquified eggplant as part of the

liqid to make rice. She actually likes the taste of it, it is the

texture that turns her off.
