Eggplant Dip
This dip has no salt or oil added, and seems a bit wetter than I had imagined, we were not very fond of this one, but next time may make it with less tomato and more eggplant. We thought it would be similar to a Baba ghanoush, but since I have not made one of those either, I will have to try both next time. Possibly add some tahini in it for texture and flavor.
