Meatless Meals for Meat Lovers (Part Deux)

eggplant from backyard garden

Ok, so I promised to provide more recipes for those who have a person in our lives that we have to ween off of meat at every meal.  Here is another very hearty meal that they may not even notice is meatless.

I love eggplant, it is a great "meaty" fruit (we just went over fruits in Food is Elementary class, so I have to use the correct nomenclature, or believe me, the students will notice! lol) and because it can be so hearty, it is easy to eat it without the presence of meat. This Moroccan inspired dish is sure to please.

(the recipe is for a meal for two)
