Grilled Eggplant Recipe

Prep and cooking takes about 15 minutes not counting getting the grill hot:

Ingredients:

I like medium sized lavender eggplants - Dancer is my favorite variety. I find the big black ones in the store too bitter. If they are used get 1 large one, soak it in salt water for 30 minutes and pat dry. This recipe is better with 2 medium Italian or Japanese eggplants
3 TBS Olive oil
2 TBS Balsamic vinegar
2 garlic cloves minced
a few pinches of fresh herbs - Dill, Basil, and Oregano are nice
Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking: 

Get your grill hot. Combine oil, vinegar, garlic, herbs, salt and pepper. Cut the eggplant into 1/2 inch slices. Coat the slices with he herb, olive, balsamic mixture. Grill for about 5 minutes per side or until tender and brown.
