KITTENCAL'S EGG OR TUNA AND OLIVE SALAD SANDWICHES



Kittencal's Egg or Tuna and Olive Salad Sandwiches image

This is so good you won't be able to keep your spoon out of the bowl for a taste! ---it's great in a sandwich stuffed in a pita or scooped on a large lettuce leaf, I have served this many times for a luncheon get together and everyone loves it! --- the amounts listed are usually what I use for 8 eggs but the exact measurements do not really matter just use whatever you wish for the amount of eggs you make, I purchase the pimento-stuffed olives for this and I say the more you use the better! after slicing the olives make certain to hand-squeeze out as much of the moisture as possible --- plan ahead slightly the mixture needs to chill for a few hours before using.

This is a deli-quality egg salad and one I have made many times in the past to serve a luncheons and buffets and always receive rave reviews! --- for a change of pace this is great stuffed between pita bread with a leaf of lettuce, plan ahead the egg mixture *must* be chilled for several hours or even overnight to blend the flavors, the amounts listed should give you 4 to 5 sandwiches, please add in the olives they are what really makes this recipe! :)

KITTENCAL'S FRIED EGGPLANT SLICES (VEGETARIAN)



Kittencal's Fried Eggplant Slices (Vegetarian) image

I make this often especially using my summer's crop of eggplant, I would strongly suggest to use only olive oil for frying it really adds to the flavor, use dry breadcrumbs only for this, to save time bread all the eggplant slices ahead of frying and place on a baking sheet so you will have them ready to transfer to the skillet --- you may "sweat" the eggplant slices by sprinkling both sides lightly with salt and drain in a colander for 1 hour, rinse lightly under cold water then pat dry with paper towels.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 26m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium eggplants, peeled
3 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons water
2 cups dry breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning (for a less intense flavor reduce to 1/2 teaspoon)
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (can use more)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper (or adjust to heat level) (optional)
olive oil (for frying, can use vegetable oil or Canola oil)

Steps:

  • Cut the peeled eggplant into about 1/2-inch thick slices.
  • In a shallow bowl whisk eggs with water.
  • In another shallow bowl combine breadcrumbs with Parmesan cheese, dried parsley, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, seasoned salt and black pepper.
  • Heat about 3/4 to 1-inch of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat (the oil should be hot before adding in the slices).
  • Dip the eggplant slices firstly into the egg mixture, then coat both sides with breadcrumb mixture.
  • Place the slices into the hot oil and fry only until light golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side (after frying one eggplant you may need to add in more oil to the skillet).
  • Remove to a large serving plate (these are best when served right away).
