Baked Eggplant Fries

I made eggplant fries the other night.  It was a bit of a long shot, but turned out to be a huge success!  They tasted great and no one had a clue they were eating eggplant (even me and I actually like eggplant).  My pickiest eater actually told her Dad on leftover night that these were the best ever...made me feel great!

They were very easy to make.  Here is the recipe.

1 small eggplant

1 egg

1/2 cup milk

1 cup bread crumbs

Salt

Pepper

Paprika

Peel and cut the eggplant into sticks to resemble fries.  Whip the egg in one container, place the milk in a second container, put the bread crumbs, salt, pepper and paprika in a third container.  Dip the eggplant stick in the milk, then the eggs, followed by the bread crumbs.  Place the eggplant fries on a no-stick (I like no stick Reynolds wrap) or sprayed pan.  Bake the fries at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes.   

Picky Eaters

Do you have picky eaters at home?  I have one (two if you count my husband).  So I try new ways to present healthy foods and in some cases succumb to sneaking in purees.  I also believe in offering a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables at every meal.  Everyone enjoys the variety and the freshness.  Do you have picky eaters at home and how do you promote healthy eating?

Let's Get Things Started

Good morning everyone!  I know it has been almost a year since my last post.  So much has happened...a new baby and a move from Florida to Georgia.  I would like to get the blog up and running with a few changes.  I will still post deals, grocery shopping trips, but would like to add things such as recipes and educational tips.  I hope you enjoy!
