Roasted Vegetable Orzo Pasta Salad alongside Lemon Vinaigrette, or breaded as well as fried it every bit Eggplant Parmesan.  Eggplant doesn't bring a ton of flavor, but is bang-up at picking upwards the flavors added to it - only endure certain to add together enough of rigid flavor alongside seasoning as well as herbs.
