    @MyOwnStickFigure I was shocked by this video, I have herd the same thing, that eggplant had little nutrition, It might have even been on good eats, I’m glad to hear that does have a lot of good things going for it. I’m a chef so I will cooking more eggplant in the future

    Great information. Thanks for sharing. How small of pieces did you chop up the eggplant before putting on your salad?

    One of my favorite bottled healthy dressings is Sophia’s Oil Free Cilantro and Lime salad dressing. I bet that would be great with Eggplant.

    I don’t make any complicated raw dishes but I can direct you to the recipe. It’s basically marianted strips of raw eggplant and then dehydrated. You have to get the perfect timing though or it comes out bad. I tried to make it once and didn’t like it. It’s also heavily seasoned… will find you a video recipe and share. If I can’t find one I will direct you to Gone Raw website where I know you can see it!

    I will for sure. I have to find it locally grown and organic first though as that’s how I eat… so when I see it at my local farmer’s market I will pick some up and create an eggplant creation juice! maybe moussaka style – I remember eating that in the past during food addiction behaviors and know the super yummy flavor. Raw foodists make fake bacon from it!

    Karen this is a great video! I find it to be very informative. Eggplant is one of those misunderstood vegetables. Can you believe I have read in nutrition studies that it has little nutritional value!? Sorry but I think not. I think we need to sick Karen on em’ and set em’ straight lol One thing I just learned is it’s tryptophan contents, amen! I only eat raw food and haven’t fancied it raw but never thought to juice it. I can make my own moussaka juice!
