Thank you for join me on my culinary adventure as I sample and document all my (hopefully) tasty and creative meals. I'm looking to expand my eating and cooking horizons, as long as they don't involve mushrooms or olives, or most meats......
I hope you enjoy my food blog (flog?)

Friday Dinner
Eggplant Curry, Garden Salad and Spicy Roasted Chick Peas
This curry was surprisingly simple to put together, and tasted fantastic! This is the "recipe" I used, but since I don’t actually measure anything, this is an approximation of what I did.
Cut the eggplant in half longways, brush with olive oil and garlic, and place in a glass baking dish with a little bit of water. Bake at 450ºF about 40 minutes, or until tender. Let cool, then peel and chop.
Heat a saucepan, and add a little bit of water, then a chopped onion and cumin powder. Add finally chopped garlic and ginger, curry powder, and one can of crushed tomatoes (undrained).
Add eggplant and a chopped jalapeno pepper. Add nonfat Greek yogurt to thicken. Turn down heat, cover and cook for 15 minutes.
And DESSERT!
