Happy Friday!

Here is your weekly dose of Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner. Your weekly post of the fun, entertaining and interesting things we have going on.

From Eggs to Eggplant! Last week we featured3 different ways to prepare eggs for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, and today we're featuring Eggplant!

Breakfast

Eggplant Zucchini Bread

I know, you’re probably thinking WHAT???

Eggplant Bread? I promise I haven’t lost my mind.

The texture of eggplant really isn’t too different from zucchini and why not add this great veggie to a delicious Eggplant Zucchini Bread Recipe .

I LOVE to eat a slice individually toasted in my toaster oven with a little butter or coconut oil spread over top. Who can resist those crunchy toasted edges?

NOTE: SUPER IMPORTANT – this recipe is for TWO loaves of bread, so you can cut it in half or make two and freeze one.

Let me know what you think of this recipe! Also, did you make one loaf or two?

Lunch

Broiled Eggplant Sandwich

Freshly toasted bread with an avocado schmear, cheese, cucumber, roasted red peppers, finely sliced red onions… need I say more?

This recipe was created by Toaster Oven Love, you can click here for the Broiled Eggplant Sandwich Recipe.

I love all the different levels of flavors this sandwich gives. You could even “kick it up a notch,” as Emeril Lagasse would say, by adding some crispy bacon if you’d like.

All these fresh flavors make my mouth sing!

Dinner

Roasted Eggplant Parmesan – Wonderfully Delicious 

I absolutely love Ina Garten. I love her story even more, such an interesting journey she’s been on. Check out her brief overview here: Ina’s Story

What I love most about her cooking is she walks you through a recipe complicated or simple and makes you feel like no matter the difficulty level you too came prepare her delicious dish!

This Roasted Eggplant Parmesan Recipe is decadent and rich, sure to please a dinner party of one or six. You can watch her make it here.

Thanks again for joining us on this fun journey.
