Roast Turkey with Eggplant Stuffing Recipe

Sprinkle both sides of the turkey breast lightly with salt and pepper. Peel the eggplant and slice 1/4" thick. Put eggplant, salt, onion, and water in a 2-quart saucepan. Cover and simmer about 8 minutes until tender. Drain and mash or puree in a blender. Mix with the 2 tablespoons butter, pepper, eggs, and bread crumbs. Turn into a buttered 1½ -quart casserole and sprinkle with the grated cheese, salt, and pepper. Arrange turkey breast on top of stuffing. Bake in a preheated 375° F. oven for 1 hour, basting the breast occasionally with the 1/4 cup of melted butter. Makes 4 servings.
