Grilled Eggplant

Ingredients

1 large Eggplant, cut into 1/2 thick round slices

1 Tbl Kosher Salt

1/4 cup No-Stick Grilling Marinade for Vegetables

2 tsp Black Pepper, freshly ground

Instructions

Sprinkle the eggplant with the kosher salt and place on paper towels. Allow the eggplant to sit for 30 minutes.

Using paper towels, pat the eggplant wheels dry and brush them with the marinade. Allow to sit for 10 minutes.

Prepare the grill. Cook the eggplant over direct high heat for two minutes and rotate 1/4 turn. Cook two more minutes, them turn each slice over cooking for 3 minutes more. Remove from the grill and sprinkle the eggplant with the freshly ground pepper. Serve hot, or cold.

Yield: 4-6 servings

For a nice variation, use Japanese eggplant, cut lengthwise.

Honey Bundt Cake

This bundt cake brings back memories of family gatherings on Bellewood Drive where sweets were as much a part of the celebration as the presents under the tree. The warm notes of cinnamon and honey make it a natural fit for holiday mornings or as the perfect finish to a Christmas feast. The pomegranate glaze adds a bright, tart finish that keeps things interesting. Make sure to grease every nook and cranny of your bundt pan thoroughly. Use butter and dust with flour for a clean release. Also, letting the cake cool for a solid twenty minutes before flipping is key to avoiding a sticky mess.
