    I just made a healthier version of Eggplant Parmesan from a recipe I found in my Prevention magazine ~ September 2010 issue and I have to say...it was delish! My husband is Italian and can cook great Italian food and when he complimented how much flavor it had, I knew I would be making it again. Copy and paste the link below to your browser. I added a little more fresh garlic when I made it.

    Oh lookie what I found, something to do with an Eggplant I've yet to see a recipe for!:laugh: :tongue:

    Kumba
    Bake (or nuke) eggplant until it is very soft. Let it cool and spoon out eggplant from its skin. Add fresh pressed garlic, olive
    oil,lemon juice, cilantro/corriander, onions,roasted red peppers (from jar). Chop and add celery (or fresh locusts or
    grasshoppers* if you have any) Serve with dental floss**to get those nasty celery pieces from dangling.

    When you serve it to your guests, be sure to tell them all about the history of this recipe***. This curiosity will add to
    their appetite, and to your "image" as a messy gourmet.

    * A word of caution regarding the use of fresh locusts. When you bring Kumba for your friend's potluck dinner,
    please remember that the locusts should not be so fresh that they crawl out of the bowl, fly around the house and
    eat all of your friend's houseplants. The plants can be replaced, but trying to mend the friendship after that kind of
    faux pax can really be a challenge.
    **On the side!
    ***AFTER they take a bite.
