Introduction

Eggplant is perfect for the grill. Just a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Yummy!!! My favorite use of grilled eggplant is on a sandwhich. A grilled veggie sandwhich is about as good as it gets!!

    I made eggplant almost like this yesterday. It was SO delicious! Mine was just a bit different. I used baby eggplant and I am SO GLAD I did - I hate the seeds in big eggplant. I added minced garlic & put in a bag w/ eggplant, salt, and pepper with oil. Shook, grilled 3 or 4 min each side - Voila! - 6/16/09

    Used Basil flavored oil, garlic and balsamic. Don't cut them too thick. Served them with WW pasta with Prego Sauce sprinkled with Parm. Cheese. Very good! - 8/25/11

    Not too shabby & pretty darn easy. I did as another suggested & mixed some balsamic vinegar with the EVOO before coating eggplant then sprinkled on some garlic powder after. - 7/20/11

    My husband makes this for me all the time! It is one of my favorites. It is especially good to mix some red wine vinegar with the olive oil before drizzling! It adds extra flavor :) - 6/22/10

    It was my first time having egg plant and didn't know if I was supposed to peel it or not (I think I was since the skin got crusty)! I sprinkled with a bit of balsamic vinegar! It was good. - 3/15/10

    I wasn't able to grill mine, but I pan-fried it for the same length of time on each side. I added garlic salt, pepper and sprinkled parmasean cheese on top after I flipped it. The flavour was really good, but it was a bit too mushy for my likings. - 8/27/09

    This was so simple, and soo good! I also added some minced garlic to the EVOO and pepper. I added it to a turkey burger on an Arnold's Sandwich Thin...YUM!! - 8/11/09
