Leave off the chicken and you have a fabulous side dish to go with Chicken or Eggplant Parmesan. […]

My favorite is eggplant parmesan, but my mom had a recipe for a stuffed eggplant that was pretty amazing. And of course there’s always ratatouille!

Thanks for sharing! I look forward to more A to Z goodness.
