Sadly, this #eggplant 🍆 was not #organic, but my partner made good use of it in a dish that he’d found a recipe for on instagram. Eggplant is one of those #veggies that I hated as a kid, but I can’t get enough of it now!

The vegetable (well, fruit) I have had the most difficulty preparing has been eggplant. I enjoy it when ordered from restaurants (especially Chinese or Taiwanese) but I always struggle to make it tasty when cooking at home. Well, luckily, I cracked the code this time when I grilled it! I cut the eggplant into discs, marinated in dressing, grilled and dressed lightly with balsamic vinegar. It was delicious! Perhaps now that my confidence is up I can try other preparation methods again with this style and a Japanese eggplant. In any case, I’m glad for a tasty win! 😊 This eggplant tasted great and was so cute! #eggplant #produce #grownincalifornia
Bizarrely, all of the eggplants (all of them!) in the Trader Joe’s produce section this week had noses. Once I managed to stop laughing, I brought one home and turned it into delicious baba ghanoush. This was a decent eggplant — albeit a bit seedy and not organic — and I think it deserves full marks for presentation, because it brightened my day considerably.
