  1. well, mine didnt turn out like any of the photos, but we really enjoyed it. used lebenese eggplants, and found I had to add a little more oil, but the taste was great!
     
  2. I did like it, but I didn't love it - it didn't come out quite as delicious as the images made me hope for. I suspect that may just be due to personal tastes, because I'm not the biggest fan of paprika. Thanks for posting the recipe though, and I suggest anyone who has these ingredients on hand and wants a side in a tight spot go for it - it was easy and tasty. my guests did enjoy it a lot, but none of them rated it a 5/5.
     
  3. I used baby eggplant and grape tomatoes because I had them on hand...this was a great recipe...I think it will be very versatile...not only a great side dish but would also be great with some penne as a main dish!
     
  4. We really enjoyed this! The combination of flavors was very nice in and it made for a perfect side dish. I think this would go with just about anything I want to serve and is filling without being really starchy. It also has lots of great fiber! So healthy!!! Thanks for sharing- ~Sue
     
  5. This is delicious, and simple to prepare. I am a huge fan of smoked paprika, so was excited to have one more dish to make with it. I used Japanese eggplants and Big Girl tomatoes, all freshly picked from my garden this afternoon. What a summertime treat! I could also see this pureed to a chunky-smooth consistency, and served cold as a dip. Yummmmmm..... Thanks, BarbryT!
