    My mouth is watering. I love egg plant, but my family doesn't so I don't make it very often. I've never seen an eggplant recipe like this before. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe on Merry Monday linky party. Pinned it.

    I haven't visited here for a while and I am loving the new recipes (and the new blog look :))! I haven't been very active virtually the last 1.5 years, but I am trying to improve this and hopefully I can do more blogwalking as before :).

    We'll soon have eggplants at the farmers' market and this looks like a delicious way to use them.

    Best,

    Eggplants are my favorite veggies!! I sometimes cook them on the grill with bell peppers, zucchini and simple salad dressing. This is one new worth to try!
