I am very glad to have a recipe to use eggplant - I do not like it, but will be getting it in my CSA box. So this will be so perfect. I should think there enough wonderful flavors to kill the eggplant.

Oh my god! You have no idea how much I love you for this! It sounds amazing. Can't wait to try it! Does it really become crispy, thou? The other crackers I used sundried tomato in it always stayed somewhat soft.
