Comments:

We each had a chicken breast, with veggies and a spinach salad. It was a TON of food and such a good way to get in a lot of vegetables. I had never cooked an eggplant before and was pleasantly surprised that it just took on the flavour of the other ingredients. Also, I was a bit skeptical of the chicken when I saw the marinade but OMG it was so, so good. The chicken was really moist and by continuously brushing it with the marinade while it was grilling, so flavourful!
