Smoky Honey Miso Eggplants is a boldly-flavored and an easy-to-throw-together side dish. A little paprika for smokiness, honey for sweet stickiness, white miso for the main flavor punch and chili oil for heat roasted for 15 minutes then garnished with toasted sesame seeds, green onions and cilantro. C’est voila!

I used Chinese eggplants (also called Asian eggplants): they’re long, thinnish and light purple. I buy them at an Asian market although sometimes specialty food stores sell them. If you can’t find them, no fear, use smaller regular eggplants and cut them into wedges lengthways. Cheers, Lovoni xo

SMOKY HONEY MISO EGGPLANTS

Chinese/Asian eggplants are long, thinnish and light purple. I buy them at an Asian market although sometimes specialty food stores sell them. If you can’t find them, no fear, use smaller regular eggplants and cut them into quarters lengthways.

Date & Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies: were born from a Date & Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies: were born from a need to use up ingredients that had been in my pantry for some time – dates, dark chocolate (yes, I know the fact chocolate stayed in my house without being eaten is a miracle) and oats. So many oats. This recipe uses three cups of oats and makes a large batch of cookies. Perfect for sharing. And although oatmeal cookies certainly aren’t particularly pretty, stylist or photogenic – speaking from experience, they do possess something most other cookies don’t have and that’s fiber. Something alarmingly lacking in western diets. Oats, dates and dark chocolate…all good sources of fiber.
