Eggplant was on sale at Kroger, so I picked up a couple. I sliced them thinly, dipped in a milk and egg mixture, then coated with a flour/cornstarch mixture, and lightly fried them. I had already cooked up some bacon, and I sliced up some Roma tomatoes, toasted the bread, and slathered it with some mayonnaise. I layered the eggplant, then tomato slices, and topped with a couple of slices of bacon. I added just a tiny bit of salt and pepper, and the sandwiches were delicious. I ate these for lunch several times last week. Toward the end of the week, I ran out of bacon, and had just the eggplant and tomato the same way, and it was still really delicious.
I picked up a few more eggplants, and this time I'm going to brush them with a little olive oil, and cook them on my grill pan. I don't have any bacon this week, but I do have breakfast sausages, so I might try adding those to the sandwiches.
