Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut the eggplants into 1-inch chunks. Scoop out the flesh with a melon baller or teaspoon measure to form small cups, making sure not to go all the way through the bottom. Lightly spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Place the cups, scooped side up, onto the sheet pan and lightly spray them with cooking spray. Season them with salt and pepper. Bake the cups until they are just softened but not collapsed, 10 to 15 minutes.
- While the eggplant cups are baking, heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage, breaking it up with a fork, and cook for 6 to 8 minutes until cooked through. Stir in the corn muffin crumbles, broth, and Italian seasoning. Cook until the liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Fill the eggplant cups with the sausage mixture. Transfer to platter and garnished with chopped chives, if desired.
FRAN'S EGGPLANT CORNBREAD DRESSING
My mother got this recipe out of the newspaper in the '80's. It became a family favorite, beating out traditional cornbread stuffing at Thanksgiving and Christmas. If you just *have to have* traditional dressing, incorporate eggplant or squash into it to keep the stuffing from drying out. The eggplant provides moisture, but not much taste. This casserole is all about the cheese and cornbread!

Steps:
- Grease a 2 quart casserole dish and set aside.
- Microwave eggplant until soft. Perhaps 6 minutes. When done, mash to a pulp.
- Fry the onion in a little butter until soft and translucent.
- Crumble the cornbread into coarse crumbs.
- Combine eggplant, onion, butter and cornbread.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients and pour into a greased casserole dish. Bake at 350F for 45 minutes or until the casserole is "set:" in the middle. ("Set" means a knife inserted in the middle of the casserole comes out clean, but not so well done that the casserole is dry.).
- This is a very forgiving recipe. Instead of measuring out 2 cups of cornbread crumbs, I usually just crumble up an 8x8 pan of fresh cornbread. You want the mixture to be wet enough to wet all the cornbread crumbs, but not so wet that it won't "set up." If it seems a little dry before baking, add just a little chicken broth or water.
- I have also used yellow squash or zucchini in place of the eggplant. The prep time can be reduced by using frozen onions in place of fresh. Also, I am just really slow at prep!

EGGPLANT DRESSING
A recipe my family grew up on that our mom made, simply ingredients and cooking. Great as a meal with sliced tomatoes or a side dish. **My mom would also slice bell peppers in half, remove seeds and rub a bit of oil on outside then mound this eggplant dressing inside, place stuffed bell pepper in 9 x 13 dish with a just enough water to cover bottom and bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes to be served as a side dish. ***You can also just cook your eggplant down with the seasonings S,P Garlic Powder, onion and bell pepper. Cool then freeze in smaller packages with a good seal. When ready to use take out defrost add cooked meat and rice and heat thoroughly.
