Are you trying to come up with something new and different utilizing eggplant? We have some great fresh eggplant this week, so it’s the perfect time to come on in and try something new! This is a simple, yet flavorful recipe that makes a great quick appetizer, light lunch, or snack. It is very versatile, and wonderful paired with crackers, crusty bread, or your choice of vegetables. This week, we definitely have plenty of veggies to choose from as an accompaniment to this dish. If you like it spicy, feel free to add more crushed red pepper, or more or less garlic depending on your preference. If you’re feeling brave in this cold weather we’re having, head outdoors and grill your eggplant instead of roasting for an even deeper flavor. Enjoy!
