Baba Ganoush

So this was something new for me - also a new find from our Seattle trip. We ate at Jack and Pam's favorite Persian restaurant one day. They all got a big plate of basmati rice and veggies but I got baba ganoush - roasted eggplant with plenty of roasted garlic and spices. Kroger had some nice eggplants this weekend so I thought I'd give it a try. The recipe is posted here. It was really easy and tasty. It reminds me of hummus but it's not quite as heavy as hummus. I think it will be really good on a veggie sandwich loaded up with all the usuals - peppers, onions, tomatoes, etc.
