Eggplant Mini Pizzas

I always search, though, for something a little different as well. This time the eggplants looked especially nice, so I got one. The next day I  realized there was no way I was going to have time to make Eggplant Parmesan. I decided to get creative and came up with these Eggplant Mini Pizzas. I think these would be a great healthy item for kids too, and they might even enjoy helping to make them.

I also think that with the importance of computers in the world these days, it is equally important to introduce children to computers at an early age as well.
