This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

These grilled baby eggplants were a bit too smoky for my taste. I think I'll try grilling them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These grilled baby eggplants were a disappointment. They were bland and lacked flavor. I followed the recipe exactly but the eggplants just didn't have much taste.

This was my first time grilling baby eggplants and it was easier than I thought. The recipe was easy to follow and the eggplants turned out great. I served them with a side of tzatziki sauce and they were a hit.

Grilled baby eggplants were a hit at our last barbecue! The smoky flavor from the grill and the tender texture of the eggplants were a perfect combination. We'll definitely be making these again soon.
