Eggplant Delight

Justin and I were watching a cooking show this morning and the chef was making an eggplant recipe. Justin loves eggplant and I am always on the look for ways to cook it, so we decided to recreate the recipe we saw only neither one of us remember what it was called! We grilled sliced eggplant that was drizzled with EVOO and salt and pepper. Then mixed together chopped rosemary, parsley, garlic and lemon zest. In a baking dish we stacked the grilled eggplant, some fresh buffalo mozzarella cheese then topped it with the herb mixture and repeated that again. The dish was placed in the oven on 150 Celsius for about 10 mins. We put the eggplant stack on a slice of toast and drizzled with a little more EVOO. Pretty yummy!! We enjoyed dinner over a few LOST episodes, we are catching up on the 5th season. We used to be die hard fans of the show with our friends Arden and Gary when we all lived in New York but have lost interest in the past few years. Last week we decided to give it a chance again and are completely obsessed.

Tennis in the morning and then off to Phuket in the afternoon. We are going there for a long weekend with our friends Ally and Vanessa from Dubai. Have a good weekend! xo
