Eggplant Delight

"This was so delicious and so different! (Most eggplant recipes are either main dishes or require frying.) It was easy too. I prepped the eggplant, onion and celery and put them on to boil. By the time the other ingredients were prepped and mixed, the boiling was done. I did not mash the vegetables as I thought I would like some texture. I did. I changed the bread crumbs to Italian seasoned breadcrumbs (decrease the salt to 1/2 teaspoon). In the future, I may use red bell pepper just for color. My incredibly picky mother in law ate every bite and my DH loved it too. A real keeper for summer eggplant season."
