Actually, I thought about making eggplant parmesan this past summer, because I came across a recipe that has been attributed with putting many pregnant women (around 300!) in labor. But then I gave birth before I got around to making the dish, and I kind of forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder-I'm going to put this on my next meal plan!

One thing I've recently been loving is eggplant parmesan. It's not hard to make (it just takes forever to bake) but it feels like something fancy you'd order in a restaurant.Jenny Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06320766378823015885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758330335100037759.post-1546265623277919182016-09-19T22:19:44.493-05:002016-09-19T22:19:44.493-05:00I think you're right--just adding some ingredi...I think you're right--just adding some ingredient that's a little different can make food feel fancy--or trying something new. The biggest thing for me is variety. I always feel like an awesome cook when I'm inventing some new concoction--always a variety of an old concoction, but still fun.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07894832851934334471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758330335100037759.post-7291236506647157052016-09-19T09:22:51.267-05:002016-09-19T09:22:51.267-05:00I think it is so easy for moms to gobble up food t...I think it is so easy for moms to gobble up food to quickly-I have also done that many times!

I don't take time to savor the taste--whether it is simple or complex. I think just slowing down and paying attention can help make simple foods more exciting!<br />Also, I like to make small adjustments to simple foods to give them a new flair. I love mac and cheese, so I'll make Italian tomato mac Shannon @ Of The Hearthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13211053395897432251noreply@blogger.com
