I doubled it due to lots of Eggplant left the skins on and added onion. I thought it was really good and different. Did not love the doubled amt of Cinnamon though. We ate it over oven baked red potatoes - yummy!
I took the first comment to heart and tried to spice it up a bit. That was a bad idea. Next time I make this I'm sticking to the recipe. The veggies were delicious! I'm so glad to find a way to use eggplant that I enjoy. I left the skins on though since that's where a lot of nutrients are. The texture was good. I made this and sliced a baguette for dinner. Filling and tasty.
First Time Trying This Recipe We found this site during a search and the recipe sounded appealing. The recipe is well-written & easy to follow and having just a few produce items in the fridge / accessible you can get this meal prepared very quickly. We read some of the reviews - noted it may be a little bland as well as the caution to not try to spice it up. What to do? We'll we stuck to the recipe...and yes it was a little bland but it provided a nice aromatic dish. We served it over pearled couscous (vs serving w/ flat-bread) along with a nice salad. It was pleasantly filling and I felt full afterward: we will have enough for a nice lunch (I like leftovers think whatever you want). We'd definitely return to this meal although I think it could use a bit more flavoring. I might not drain the tomatoes (as it suggested) &/or simmer it a bit more to allow the flavors to really meld. A shallot might be nice addition with just a hint of clove. Good luck & enjoy! Pros: Easy Healthy Quick Cons: A little bland
Great! I didn't have all the ingredients for this recipe (red peppers and cinnamon). It still came out tasty. I had them in hot dog buns and they were pretty good and filling. I could even eat it by itself.
I thought this recipe ended up tasting pretty bland... I even went back to see if I left out an ingredient! I'm not a very experienced cook so might have been my technique! Still glad to have such a veggie rich recipe!
Fantastic! We are getting our veggies from a local CSA and we had all the ingredients in our box this week. What a yummy recipe -- best of all the whole family rated it a 5 out of 5! Seriously that never happens in our house. Thanks. Don
