  2. Babaganoush!
    Buy two eggplants. Preheat the over to 450. Roast them directly on the open flame of your burners until they start to char. Throw the eggplants on a baking dish and leave in oven for 20 min.
    While eggplant is baking, empty one can drained diced tomatoes onto a skillet and grill. Add Oregano.
    Remove eggplant, allow to cool, scoop out the pulp and blend in food processor. Add 2 tablespoons garlic and 2 tble spoons tahini. Add parsley flakes, lemon juice, garlic salt, pepper, a dash of ground cumin, and olive oil and blend well to a thick paste. Layer with grilled tomatoes and fresh cut scallions, and eat with toast or pita or crackers. Yum! Figure out the measurements for the spices, because I just add until I like it.
