Savory Smoked Eggplant and Sweet Melon Wraps Recipe

    The concept of this dish is a great idea. It is a good and a healthier substitute for prosciutto wrapped around cantaloupe. My cantaloupe wasn't on the sweet side and I wish it would have been. When I make this again, I will cut on the salt in the marinade as it made for a salty eggplant, I should have known because eggplant soaks up flavors like a sponge, therefore 10 minutes marinading time is just right. The eggplant in general was full of flavor. It grilled really well and didn't break up easily. Thank you Kate L for sharing. Made it for Photo Tag.
