Posted - Jul 27 2012 : 09:21:09 AM What else is in the CSA box? I would do a big veggie saute' with the eggplant, zucchini, yellow squash, onion, red bell pepper, and tomatoes, some salt and pepper, maybe some basil, and serve that over a small pasta such as orzo, or rice noodles, or a grain like quinoa, bulgur, or rice.

Posted - Jul 26 2012 : 6:15:16 PM I grew and ate my first eggplant a couple of years ago. Had never eatten any before and made some eggplant parmesian with home made marinara. MAN WAS IT GOOD! I've decided eggplant is good and not something to fear any more. Enjoy it however you decide to cook it.

Chop a few garlic cloves, add to the eggplant, maybe a scallion or so too. Add a tablespoon or so of mayo to coat. Top on some crusty bread like a bruschetta. Or make a baba ganoush. |
