the little ones, not necessarily azn, are good. the farmer's market i go to has them just about every week. there's this dish with tomatoes, breadcrumbs, penne & eggplant that we make sometimes that kicks butt.

this is almost the exact same recipe, except ours includes 1 1/2 lbs of ripe plum tomatoes, sliced about 1/4 inch thick
so when you get to the part where you are putting the bottom layer in the oven dish, you use 1/2 of the fresh tomato slices for that instead of the sauce, then half the breadcrumbs on top, and then follow the rest of the recipe.then your top layer will be the other half of the fresh tomatoes with breadcrumbs on top.
it comes from a very good cookbook called the flavors of puglia by nancy harmon jenkins that gets a lot of use in our house.

maybe i will get that cookbook from the library sometime. my eggplant recipe is from "silk road vegetarian," which i am very pleased with. i made a mung bean/lettuce salad from it last night.
