You know how eggplant has been on sale for super cheap these past few weeks? We’re talking 99 cents per eggplant. I just can’t help myself when an unusual-to-me food is affordable, a gorgeous purple, and just asking to be taken home. (Apparently produce speaks to me.)
Since I’m not crazy about eggplant in its tradition forms (lasagna, parmesan), I took a page from this recipe to try something new. It was absolutely delicious! Add in fresh tomatoes, some mozzarella slices, and you have a light, tasty dinner on your hands.
In fact, the baked eggplant chips were so good, that I made them again the following week (99 cents, people) without the tomatoes and mozzarella. Rob and I literally just ate the chips with some barbecue grilled chicken. The only thing stopping me from buying it again was we ran out of breadcrumbs and garlic powder. A situation that will be remedied this coming week.
It’s a short and sweet post today. Seriously, go make these! I know the recipe directions say to bake until golden brown, but if you’re like me (and my mom) then you might want to let them get a little burnt. Just a touch, and just on the edges. Crispy goodness. [amd-zlrecipe-recipe:13] RQ: What is your favorite way to cook eggplant?
