Frugal Friday!

It's frugal Friday once again!

I killed most of my garden for lack of a green thumb, but I have successfully grown eggplants!  Apparently, they can live through anything :)

They are mini eggplants, so I had to wait until I had several.  And this week I was able to make eggplant parmigiana.  My favorite.  Since there is no meat in this, it's pretty frugal.

mini eggplants from my garden:

Here are some of them cut up.   

Oh... and I love this spaghetti measuring tool!   

Finished product:
