Very delicious and easy to make.

I love this recipe! Although I did make a pretty huge change....rather than green peppers, I used a 12 ounce jar of roasted red peppers. It's a pain to make because I squeeze out the eggplant juice and remove the seeds as I was told they can make the eggplant taste bitter. Thanks for sharing!

This was really nice, and all the ingredients blended well together. It was also easy to make and put together that I may do this again every Passover.

This recipe is different from the normal side dish and the blend of flavors is a yum at first bite and an um um um at second. Thanks Chia
