Eggplant Disaster!

Ok so admittedly the only way I have ever had it was as Eggplant Parmesan. (Not one of my favs) Dan got one a few days back so lat night I thought Oh I can saute it and put it with pasta and sauce. YUM! NOT! I had no idea it was like a sponge. It soaked up every bit of oil and turned out not so yummy. My poor kids! So moral of the story... Grill it! Brush it with some oil and garlic and toss it on the grill.

Today is the day we get our first delivery of Grow Alabama. Here is the list for this week:
1. tomatoes

2. eggplant

3. purple hull peas (shelled)

4. mixed green beans

5. Okra

6. new potatoes

7. mixed bell peppers

8. Winter squash

9. cherry tomatoes

10. apples

Now to find some yummy recipes to make with all that. :)

I know this is old but I had never made eggplant successfully until this summer and we loved the oven fried eggplant. I cut it up and soaked it in salt water for 30 min before doing anything to it and it crisped right up. Deeelicious. I have tried to make it again but learned that I could not let the eggplant sit around for five days before using it. Yuck. Wow your blog is a great record of your new adventures in eating! Awesome!
