Trader Joe's is looking to give your pantry a little upgrade with the addition of its new Grecian Style Eggplant with Tomatoes & Onions
Sold in a stylish 9.9-ounce tin, the new Grecian Style Eggplant with Tomatoes & Onions is an unexpectedly gourmet take on eggplant. The product is made for Trader Joe's by a supplier in Bulgaria who takes freshly harvested eggplants and immediately splits them lengthwise to stew in a rich and flavorful sauce of tomatoes and onions. The whole thing is then seasoned with a blend of parsley, garlic, red pepper, and curry powder, and canned with just the right amount of oil. When you're ready to enjoy the dish, the eggplant halves simply unfurl from the can so they're ready to enjoy.
