ingredients
- 2 small eggplants (about 6-7 oz. each)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup chopped portabella mushroom

Cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in the tomato and cook, stirring, 1 minute longer. Add the remaining ingredients.
- Spoon mixture into the eggplant shells, then return them to the oven. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until filling is heated through.

<p>This site has gotten so horribly bad over the past couple of years, I have stopped using it to manage my recipes and have gone over to using another one, which I have been forbidden to mention on Food.com. It's no secret that there are competitors; send me a message if you are in the same boat and would like to know. For now, I only frequent a few of the forums and that's it. The Titanic has sailed!</p>
