I planted eggplant in the garden this year, not even quite certain whether I liked the vegetable to begin with. This was the first recipe I tried. I used one young eggplant instead of part of a large eggplant. I did add a few sprinkles of mozzarella in addition to the listed ingredients. The results were absolutely delicious: I ate the entire eggplant!!

I was away from home and wanted to make whoopie pies, which gave me a natural opportunity to try a new recipe. In general, the whoopie pies were good. The cake mix is a convenient and quick alternative, although it was easy to distinguish the "cake mix" flavor, which is expected. The whoopie pies are noticeably more sticky on day 2. The filling is quite good when butter is substituted for shortening, but I am rating the recipe as written, not as modified. I will continue to rely on my favorite recipe in the future, which provides a "sturdier" cake with a homemade taste.

This is our family's favorite pork chop recipe, and we have been making it for 5-10 years. In a pinch, skipping the browning step will do no harm, but the pork chops are a bit more flavorful and tender when browned.
