Deliciously Greek Summer Flavors – Eggplant, Tomatoes And Feta

When you’ve got access to all the right ingredients, there is no reason to fuzz around and complicate things.
By Pam Kanavos

Simple is beautiful, and less is more, and this is how I would like to start the summer off. A simple yet very summery dish, cool in character and spicy at will. If I could use this spicy factor and persuade summer into bringing both feet into the season here in Boston, I’ll be doubly pleased.

Small eggplants (about 8-9 cm) and fresh organic vine tomatoes are called for in this very simple Greek recipe. These ladies, accompanied by olive oil, garlic and a touch of spice, is all this sisterhood of ingredients you need to achieve summer’s palette to its fullest potential. In addition, if you add a little basil and crumbled feta cheese at the end, you will have achieved a Greek flavorful glorification of simplicity.
