This was a very quick and delicious recipe. My children are 3 and 8 and they had no problem eating the eggplant before adding the tomato sauce. I wanted them to taste the actual vegetable before fully cooking it. I am slowly preparing myself and my family into vegetarianism and recipes such as this one will make the transition very easy!!
