This was great. We added black beans at the end and heated them through. We put the mixture in a tortilla and added cheese, sour cream and salsa for a wonderful tasting burrito. Will definitely make this again.

    I wasn't sure what to expect from this recipe since traditionally I'd only used eggplant for italian recipes. But I was pleasantly suprised! I did add some fresh chopped cilantro and served it on top of some whole wheat couscous. Served as a great side to Cilantro Chicken (#181195) to round out a healthy and tasty mexican meal! Will definately make this one again. THANKS!!

    Very nice, but I needed to add 1/4 cup water (I scaled down to 1 serving) because the mixture seemed to be drying out during the simmer. I didn't peel the eggplant, and also added a pinch of salt, and omitted the garlic. I'll definitely make this again when I need a quick veggie side.

    We loved this eggplant recipe. It was delicious and moist. Not soupy moist but moist enough to have a nice texture. I was torn between using chili powder or chile powder (pure). I went with the chili powder because it has oregano in it. I did add an extra 1/2tsp. Mexican oregano which was very, very good. Definately a wonderful recipe to add to my t&t collection. You did it again, Tebo,.....thanks!
