Eggplant & Eggs
Might I say this dish is eggsellent? I don’t know why I bought an eggplant. It was probably because it was on sale and I couldn’t resist. I’d never bought, let alone cooked, an eggplant before I made this recipe. In fact, I can count the number of times I’ve eaten it... on two fingers. I am always looking to try new vegetables, so I figured I would give the eggplant a try. This was a simple and tasty ingredient to cook with. It's also quite healthy. 1 cup of eggplant is only 33 calories. It is not only full of vitamins and minerals but antioxidants too!
