Baba Ganoush

I planted 1 eggplant this year.  I have never had any luck growing them, but now, here in NC, I grew eggplants!!

I got 4 eggplants so I made my Mom’s Eggplant Parmesan and then I decided to make some Baba Ganoush!

I had not made Baba Ganoush for years – it is definitely clean keto and delicious!

It goes great with Pork Rinds and my PSMF Focaccia!
