I love eggplant and my husband doesn’t – what’s a girl to do? So when my mom came for a visit I made this for our dinner. DELICIOUS! It’s so easy to make, so healthy and bursting with fresh summer flavors. I don’t grow my own eggplant (maybe next year?), but I do get them from my local organic crop share. I recommend picking a smaller, organic eggplant for this recipe. The eggplant is perfectly paired with our sweet & tangy Garden Good Pasta Sauce. Enjoy!
