Guest guest Posted March 14, 2010 Report Posted March 14, 2010 This was really good -- a keeper! I used canned tomatoes because fresh are just hard little pink balls in my part of the country this time of year. I bet my leftovers will have even more flavor. I might try throwing in a can of black beans next time, that could be good... maybe garnish with some black olives and green onions for a pretty display? Great as it is, too. Thanks for this one!

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2010 Report Posted March 14, 2010 Hey Audrey, when this was posted I thought it would be a good recipe and I also thought you'd try it you little eggplant lover. I didn't see any decent eggplants at the market yesterday. Donna " The afternoon knows what the morning never suspected. " Old Swedish proverb. Quote
Guest guest Posted March 14, 2010 Report Posted March 14, 2010 It's really yummy! I'm still eating it!! At my favorite grocery store, I can't always find eggplants, but when they are there, they are nice ones. At Walmart, there are always eggplants, but they're small and soft and wilted-looking. I like good eggplant!
