Adventures with Solid Food #12: Eggplant

The twelfth food for AMD is eggplant. I have really been lagging on the blog posts as of late, as I have been making DIY pore cleanser masks that made me break out (all over!), and doing all kinds of other things - like raising a baby!

Back to the "meat" of the post - eggplants. Every time I think about eggplants, I think about the movie The Coneheads.

I have never really had any cooking experience with eggplants, so all of this was new territory! I only used one eggplant and had to peel it and then cut into cubes. I had no idea that they had tiny seeds in them! The recipe said to leave the seeds in, so I did. After cutting them into cubes, I cooked them on the stove with some water until they were tender. Then I blended them up and they were good to go! One eggplant made a little over 24 oz.

Meh, they're all right. They are pretty bland, but Atti eats them up when we mix in eggplants with other, more delicious foods.
