Day 14- Eggplant Parm Subs
I finally made eggplant parmesan subs. I wanted to like them so much, but I didn’t 
I tried a slice of the eggplant after they were all fried and still hot, and it had no real flavor. Brian liked it, said it tasted like fried zucchini. I’ve never had zucchini before, either, so couldn’t compare. I tried it again after the sandwiches were assembled- still not liking it. So it’s possible that eggplant is just another on the list of “foods my dad and I dislike.” Like liver and mayonnaise. At least he passed along his love of fresh fruit 
The rest of the day was still meat free, and I’m still not really craving any. Breakfast was some Kangaroo brand pita chips and two veggie corndogs (well, more brunch than breakfast.) I had some strawberries mid-afternoon, and instead of the planned dinner, I had leftover bean nachos. My friend, Diana, just told me to try eggplant in a restaurant, so maybe one day I will. But for now, my eggplant days are on hiatus.
I’m sending the leftovers to work with Brian, and he can ask if anyone there likes eggplant. I think I’ll be relieved if they say “it usually tastes much better than this!” (Brian actually liked it, so not sure what to expect really.) And if they like it, then it just means that I don’t, and it’s ok. At least I tried something new!
