NOTES: I thought doing this meatless would leave me feeling hungry, but it was delicious and filling too.
I'd definitely make this again.

That's wonderful idea - I was just talking to my husband the other day when we went to Chinese food that I can eat all these eggplants and he could finish the meat. I'm not vegetarian and not plan to be one, but sometimes veggies like eggplant and eringi give us enough volume that I can totally pass meat. Looks delicious!
You had me at "taco rice". Eggplant instead of meat is an added bonus for me. Yumm!!
I don't plan to be vegetarian either Nami :)
You should ask Wendell to make for you Jalna :)
Take care you two.

Sounds wonderful, Kat! I probably couldn't sell this to my carnivores, but I'd be happy to eat my share :)
Using the eggplant and eringi as the "meat" is a good idea for a vegetarian dish and sounds like you didn't miss the real "meat".

Looks delicious. I find that when I use either eggplant or mushroom I feel full and satisfied. ;-)
Thanks Deb, I'll think I'll try subbing out meat with these two veggies more often :)
Take care.
