I warned you! I love Sabra and eggplant! My gourmet for the day centers around a little container of joy, sauteed eggplant in a tangy tomato sauce. There are chunks of eggplant with the skin attached in a sweet, salty, and garlic tomato sauce. I should warn you, it is a little oily and mushy; but, delicious nonetheless. I've been hooked since my first bite. It goes with everything, well I haven't tried ice cream yet, but I can see it working. The sauteed eggplant is perfect just to eat right from the container as a snack or a side for a meal. It is also great on top of a salad, in an omelet, in cous cous, on pizza, in sandwiches, on top of a gardenburger, etc. Depending on where you shop, it costs about $2.99. Today, I decided to put it in a quesadilla.
Again, I make almost everything with my George Forman Grill. Usually, I stuff my quesadillas with lots of ingredients. However, I wanted the eggplant to be the star, so I kept it very very simple. All you need is two small tortillas, hot sauce of your choice if you want a little spice action, some of Sabra's Sauteed Eggplant, and a cheese of your choice. I used Fontina because it is what I have in my refrigerator currently, and it is a creamy cheese that I know will go perfectly with the eggplant. I almost made a second one, but decided I had consumed enough for the afternoon. Every bite was amazing. The sweetness of the eggplant, the texture of the eggplant, paired with melted creamy cheese and hot sauce is unbeatable in my book. Give it a try!
