  re: eggplant  Hi!  To me eggplant caviar sounds like a version
of baba ganouj, which (although I've never tasted cavier), has a
similar appearance.  Usually, this dish is served with pita and
is made with los of oil and tahini, so I don't know how it will
taste without the fat.  I've had the following recipe for a long
time, so I don't know who the credit goes to...  Baba Ganouj   1
large eggplant  1 Tbs. Sesame tahini  2 Tbs. parsley, finely
chopped  1 tsp. garlic, crushed  1/2 tsp. salt  1 1/2 Tbs. lemon
juice  pepper, to taste    Make a slice in the eggplant, and
cook in the microwave for a few minutes, or until collapses and
becomes mushy. Scoop out the inside and place in a large bowl.
Add remaining ingredients, and mash and stir until the mixture
is well blended. Serve hot or cold, with whole wheat  have fun!
