Hello from TINA KASHIAN! After a wonderful Thanksgiving with family, we tried a different vegetable with our leftovers. My mother used to make sauteed eggplant. She would fry it in a pan without breading. It’s a healthier way to sauté eggplant. I found fresh eggplant at the supermarket and decided to give this recipe a try. It’s tender and flavorful without the extra calories that come with the egg dip and breading. I hope you enjoy it!
Ingredients:
1 medium eggplant, sliced into ¼ inch-thick rounds
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil (add more as needed)
Directions:
Slice eggplant into 1/4 inch-thick rounds.
Sprinkle eggplant slices on both sides with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add the eggplant slices in a single layer. Sauté eggplant for 3-6 minutes per side, until soft on both sides.
Repat with the remaining eggplant slides, adding 1-2 tablespoon s of oil as needed. Place fried eggplant on a paper towel lined dish to soak up an additional oil. Then serve hot.
Enjoy!

Not even her impending nuptials can keep Lucy Berberian, manager of her family-owned Kebab Kitchen, from the Jersey Shore’s annual Polar Bear Plunge. But her dive into the icy ocean is especially chilling when she finds a fellow swimmer doing the dead man’s float—for real . . .
Who would kill a man in cold blood during Ocean Crest, New Jersey’s most
popular winter event? When Lucy learns the victim is Deacon Spooner, the
reception hall owner who turned up his nose—and his price—at her wedding plans,
she can’t help wondering who wouldn’t kill the pompous caterer . . .
Perhaps the culprit is the wedding cake baker whose career Deacon nearly
destroyed? Or the angry bride whose reception he ruined? With her maid of
honor, Katie, busily planning Lucy’s wedding without her, Lucy will have to get
to the bottom of this cold-hearted business in time for Kebab Kitchen’s
mouthwatering Christmas celebration—and before her hometown’s holiday spirit
washes out to sea . . .
