Not so Wordless Wednesday:
This is the one and only eggplant I got from my garden this year – a rosa bianca. I was pondering what to do with it (seriously, it’s so small it fits in the palm of my hand) and a couple friends suggested this tasty and super easy crock pot ratatouille recipe. I need to get a few more ingredients (and probably another eggplant), but that is the plan for Wednesday’s dinner. :)
Also, I apologize for not blogging lately or doing a Ditch the Disposables Challenge check-in yet. There’s a lot I’ve been dealing with lately, including a broken car window (someone broke it out and stole my sister’s purse). Blah.

Glad you got one. I’ve only got one, too, and it’s still on the vine. I probably need to get it before the rabbits do. :)

Congratulations! We didn’t get even one, the poor garden drown in all the excess rain before it even got a chance.

I just stirfry my little eggplant with a melange (love that word) of other veggies from my CSA. Onion and garlic are a must. Splash with soy sauce before serving with brown rice. Great dinner, great side dish. Pretty and you use up all those odds and ends.
It’s a beautiful eggplant. be proud!

It was a bad year in my garden too this year – just wasn’t hot enough most of the season for really good results. There’s always next year! Happy WW

So sweet ;) I’ve had very little success with eggplant growing. I think I need to put them in earlier than I have been.

My eggplant in my front yard edible garden did not do too well this Summer with the heat and drought in Central Texas but I have a few. Thanks for the recipe!
