  • Love, love, loved this recipe ❤️ I made it with goat cheese and fresh basil- along with cherry tomato halves. Everything came from my garden except the goat cheese.

  • I would recommend pressing the eggplant between paper towels with something heavy on top before baking to get some of the moisture out. I used goat cheese, which melted nicely and added a nice edge to the tacos.

  • I loved this. I didn't have brie around so I used sharp cheddar and it was delicious. I put long slices of cheese on the eggplant at the last 5 minutes, them put on chunky fried portebello mushrooms, with the fresh basil just before eating.
