Marilyn, you and I are going to have to stop meeting like this! I love these recipes you're posting! I'm trying to lose weight!!! :o
Thanks for this! Sure sounds delicious!
Marilyn, is there something other than the eggplant that you could use for this pizza. My kids love pizza, but don't care for eggplant. I am not very fond of it either, but thought I would try them with it. Perhaps it was the way I prepared it.
Any thoughts?

Actually Heather you can use any vegetables you like on this pizza. Maybe grilled avacado slices, sounds good to me, I happen to love avacados.
I never liked eggplant until I drained them well before cooking after dredging them with salt and letting the juice drip down into a pan. I make Moussaka with eggplant and simply love it.
I'll have to look up the recipe and post it.
I have some eggplant plants for the garden!
Ive never even tasted egg plant that I'm aware of. :-[
I've tried another variation of this recipe, via my sister in law who got it through Taste Of Home Diet version of recipes.
I like these grilled Pizza's & we have them in the summer time. We like to alter things to suit our diet if possible.
I hope to make some real nice diet sign's for your's & my website Pat, in support of those who are trying too loose weight.
Heather: Marilyn is right, you can use various kinds of Vegitables to suit your likes & need's!!
Take Care All & See Ya Around,
