A pox on thine houses, Ritz crackers!

================

Speaking of Ritz Crackers this is really good:

Mock Oyster Eggplant

2 1/2 to 3 Lbs Eggplant
8 Oz pkg Ritz Crackers
1 to 1 1/2 cups milk
Butter
Salt and Pepper

Parboil eggplant until tender. Remove skin. Cut pulp into small pieces, add
salt and pepper to taste.
Put egg plant in 2 qt shallow baking pan. Crumble Ritz crackers and mix
thorougly with the eggplant.
Add enough milk to moisten well, or until milk is visible, but not covering
mixture. Dot with butter and bake
in 350 degree oven for 1 hour. Simple, good, and different.
