Looking for a new way to eat eggplants from my garden and I wanted to incorporate grits I found a terrific recipe @ https:\/\/eatsimplefood.com\/roasted-eggplant-peppers-and-feta-over-polenta\/ . This made the perfect taste combination with my Traeger wood fired whole chicken and baked beans. I believe this eggplant dish was meant to be vegetarian but it rocked as a side dish!<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t follow the recipe exactly since I didn\u2019t have some of the ingredients but some of the substitutions and additions added to the overall meal taste.<\/p>\n

My substitutions were, strawberries instead of cherry tomatoes, added olives, didn\u2019t have mushrooms or nuts and didn\u2019t want to go to the store, plus added havarti cheese to grits as they cooked towards the end.<\/p>\n

The olives, some rosemary and basil I lightly saut\u00e9ed in butter and olive oil separately then spead that over the whole dish and then topped it all off with blue cheese.<\/p>\n

Anyway follow the recipe @ https:\/\/eatsimplefood.com\/roasted-eggplant-peppers-and-feta-over-polenta\/ and put your twist on it.<\/p>\n

Here are some pictures of the meal that don\u2019t do justice to the tastes that blended so well with my wood smoked chicken.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
