Roasted Eggplant by Evil FairyThis is a dish you can serve as a side,bubbling hot,over pasta or cold with pita bread. You can either leave skin on or peel. You can also do on the stove,only you will need more oil. Eggplant acts as a sponge and will soak up all the oil. You use much less oil when you roast it. |

Spinach and Ricotta Balls - Gnudis by John SpottiswoodI've been looking for tasty ways to cook spinach and wild greens because they are so healthful. This one is fantastic.
