Delicious Eggplant Recipes

This season, fry, grill, roast or bake eggplant with these 12 delicious eggplant recipes. Most of these eggplant recipes are meatless or can be made meatless. Perfect for vegetarian dinner!

In my home, we love eggplant but it has to be cooked buttery, delicious with bold flavors. To achieve that I roast, grill, or fry eggplant which is sure way to make eggplant meaty, and buttery. Next, I prepare a bold and flavorful base to pair with it. Eggplant is spongy, it takes up flavors very well. For example, eggplant and tomatoes are very delicious together. If you like these two, I bet you are trying most of these recipes.

So, get ready to try more eggplant, I'm adding 12 more delicious eggplant recipes to your repertoire. 

Today's recipe collection also offers meatless Monday blast. All recipes are meatless, great to serve for vegetarian dinner. Most of these recipes can be prepared vegan. If you can find or like gluten free pasta, the meal can also be gluten free. 

Even if you don't like eggplant, try one of these recipes and you will start loving it. I'll wait for your experience.

Even though Eggplant is available all year round in stores. The eggplant season is mostly in June- Oct. When buying eggplant, look for firm fruit and glossy skin. Don't buy if eggplant has spots or is soft.

Friends, I'm all set to bring and try more eggplant this year. Bookmark this collection as I'll continue to tag all my future Eggplant Recipes here. 

Wish a wonderful start of the week.

Happy Cooking!
