Stuffed Eggplant, Award, and Greek Yogurt

Hello Everyone!

First off, thanks for the eggplant suggestions from the other day ... I appreciated them and it gave me a ton of good ideas! After taking your idea into consideration and looking at a few websites some of you suggested, here's what I came up with. My husband doesn't like eggplant, so we just kinda made our own dinners last night. Ha, so not gonna lie, I don't follow recipes very well. Typically, I just look a bunch of different recipes, use ideas from them all and throw in some more ingredients ... so if I can remember it all, here's how I made my ...

Stuffed Eggplant

-1 Turkey breast

-1 medium sized eggplant
-chopped tomatoes
-chopped onions
-chopped cabbage
-chopped mushrooms
-rice cheese
-sea salt
-pepper
-garlic and herb seasoning
-red wine vinaigrette

Directions: -Slice eggplant in half long ways, put on baking sheet and bake on 350 for about 45 minutes, or until tender.
-When the eggplant is almost done, saute onions and mushrooms, add chopped turkey breast and cook until almost all done.
-While the chopped turkey breast is cooking, remove tender eggplant from the oven and scoop out middle of eggplant, leaving a little bit on the sides and bottom.
-Add scooped out eggplant to the pan with the turkey, along with the tomatoes, cabbage, and seasonings of choice

-Finally, put contents of pan inside the hollowed out egg plant halves and top with rice "mozzarella" cheese or cheese of choice followed by red wine vinaigrette

I think I could have made it more tasty, but I still ended up very happy with the delicious result of my first time cooking with eggplant and I now officially like eggplant : )

Moving on, I'm very excited to say that today I received my FIRST blog award!! It was the "Kreativ Blogger Award" from the wonderful and lovely Emily, at The Life and Times of Em. I was having kind of a "bleh" morning until I saw this award, in which my day was immediately brigthened : )Thanks SO much, Emily ... you DEFINITELY deserved this award, too! Her wonderful, fun personally always comes out in each blog and they're all a delight to read : )

Stay tuned to my next post as I pass the award on to five other Kreativ Bloggers!

And to wrap this post up, here's the most recent batch of yogurt I made. For some reason it turned out extra tasty and I can't wait to eat it for my morning break tomorrow! (sorry for the not so good picture ... bad lighting!)
Tomorrow is Hump Day already, weird! I hope it's a WONDERFUL and BLESSED day!!

Question ... what's your favorite day of the work week?
