In my never-ending battle with freezer space, I threw together a few meals this week from freezer finds. I found last summer’s tomato sauce and eggplant Parmesan. Combined with leftover fresh mozzarella on whole wheat naan, it was pizza time!
I re-crisped the eggplant in a skillet with a little oil. Added some slice of tomatoes from the garden and topped with fresh basil from this weeks CSA.
Eggplant in one of those vegetables that I am always leery of, my brain tells me I don’t like it but my taste buds love it every time. I clearly had a bad experience or made it poorly in the past, because I always expect bitter. Not the case though.
Delicious and I made room for a few jars of creamy avocado roasted salsa verde. And the battle for freezer space continues. Maybe I can find something in there as an alternative for my Friday night pizza tonight, I think the family is tiring of me pre long run ritual.
I had a super busy week at work, so I am just catching up on your blog – beer cheese dip and pizza? Yes please!
I think I’ll give eggplant another try – my mouth and eyes still tell me I don’t like it!
Excellent use of those freezer finds!
