SAVORY STUFFED EGGPLANT
This is a really good way to fix eggplant if you don't feel like the typical fried eggplant. I actually came up with this recipe, though because I did not have all the ingredients to make the fried eggplant! It was a big hit! Enjoy!

~ CASS'S SAVORY STUFFED EGGPLANT ~
This is my recipe for one delicious eggplant dish. I have just recently become familiar with eggplant. Boy am I glad I did. I've made a few dishes using it, but this has got to be the best. I hope you try it sometime. They can be cut in half and make 4 decent portions. My family loved it. Enjoy!
