Eggplant with Black Beans

Eggplant with Black Beans

Introduction

I love eggplant, zicchini, peppers with a lot of spice. To add some body, black beans make this great vegetarian dish delicious! Serve over rice/pasta, top with parmesan cheese and/or sour cream. Tastes epecially good the second day, flavours mingled. I love eggplant, zicchini, peppers with a lot of spice. To add some body, black beans make this great vegetarian dish delicious!

    I bought an eggplant because I read they were very high in fiber. I wasn't quite sure how I wanted to use it and then I found this recipe. Wow! Loved it. I don't feel guilty eating it and it tastes great. (I really think I am a closet vegetarian....and this comes from a butcher's daughter!!!) - 2/11/08

    It was good, but 1 tbsp is WAY TOO MUCH chili powder, thank goodness I left out the crushed red pepper. I will try it again with a little bit of chicken, per my husbands request and about 1/2 the chili powder. - 1/3/10

    Nice! Thanks for the great recipe. I love the chili kick -- it's not too much, I added a dash of tabasco to mine too :) but I also used 3 zucchini (I had them in the house) so it needed more seasoning. - 10/21/12

    With everything ready in the garden I could use fresh veggies. Made this recipe exactly as specified. I found it to be bland & ended up doubling the chili powder, adding cumin and cilantro to make it palatable. I love the fresh veggies and I love black beans but the combination needed some punch. - 10/16/12

    This was an excellent recipe, and very quick to make. I added a green pepper, some mushrooms and more spice. It turned out pretty thick so I served it over brown rice. Fantastic! - 10/20/11

    I've had eggplant go bad on many an occasion. Planned to specifically make it right away. It was great! I paid some attention to the reviewers that felt that there was too much chili powder and reduced the amount. I will top it with the sour cream when I heat leftovers. - 9/1/11

    I made this tonight, and it was great! Like others, I used 2 cans of rotel. I think next time I might also add in some mushrooms. Yum! - 7/26/11

    Not a huge eggplant fan so was looking for ways to use it with other ingredients. Really liked the flavor of the combination of veggies and beans. Had as a side dish but will definitely try with chicken or over brown rice as a meal. I modified the quantities a bit and cut the oil in 1/2. - 5/23/11

    I hate when I can't tell what the size of a serving should be - assumed 1 cup - got 7. Added a T of cumin and topped it with a quarter cup of FF Greek yogurt and had it over brown rice. Very tasty and filling. - 4/10/11

    I found this while hunting for a black bean side dish, and it's definitely a keeper, with grated asiago on top! We like spice, so we used diced tomatoes w/ green chilies and a whole poblano pepper for the heat, but cut the chili powder to 1/2 tsp. I agree that 1T chili powder is way too much! - 2/25/11
