EGGPLANT ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Note: I made up this recipe on the fly, so all measurements are guesstimates only. I work by the season, taste, season some more method, so adjust the spices to your liking. Also, I made my own enchilada sauce with stuff I had on-hand, but a large can (24 oz) is about the amount you'll need.
• Cut the eggplant and potatoes into rounds about 1/4-1/2 inch thick.
• Dice into small cubes. (I have an onion chopper that does this for me very quickly -- ).
• In a large skillet, saute the eggplant and potatoes for 5-10 minutes, adding seasonings and adjusting as desired. Don't cook so long that the eggplant gets mushy-the potatoes will still be crunchy.
• Slice enough cheddar to put one or two pieces in each tortilla.
• Put a layer of enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 9" x 13" dish.
• Soften the tortillas by heating them in a skillet or the microwave so that they will roll without breaking.
• Fill each tortilla with a slice of cheese and a spoonful of the potato/eggplant mixture. Roll and place in the dish.
• Repeat until you have two 9" x 13" dishes each filled with 12 enchiladas.
• Cover the enchiladas with the remaining sauce, getting it between the tortillas.
• Top with grated cheddar.
• Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until cheese is bubbly.
