Ohh so good! Instead of boiling the eggplant I broiled it until the skin started to peel off (Makes the flesh sweeter and mushier) and used cracker meal since I didn't have normal bread crumbs. IT WAS DELICIOUS!!! Very filling too. Good, healthy dinner.

Incredible! This is one of those great recipes that is so adaptable, you can add almost anything and it'd be just as good, or better! I added (lots!) of garlic, some fresh italian herbs, and some shredded carrots, with marinara sauce and fresh mozzerella on top. YUM! My mom even loved this, and she *hates* eggplant! Definitely going to reccommend (:

Added some garlic and fresh parsley to the mash. These cooked up great and tasted great. Thanks for a great recipe

We really like eggplant but this was just okay for us. Kind of bland, actually. I served this with some homemade onion relish and that made it tasty. I'm glad I tried this recipe, but probably won't make it again. Looks like we are the odds one out though as most really enjoy this recipe. Sorry it wasn't for us.

We really liked this one. We have been dieting lately, so fried it in olive oil. It satisfied that little bit of wanting fried stuff craving. Good recipe, thanks.
