Accidentically I fixed a meal like this a few days ago (without the egg!). I found it in a book called Raw food fast food by Philip McCluskey. The combination of cumin an paprika is stunning. It's even been used alot in recipes from the middle east.

Awww, I'm sorry it didn't work out for you :(

Not a fan of the "bacon". Perhaps I sliced mine too thinly and the flavors got too concentrated. I used a peeler and made thin strips. I will say they do look like turkey bacon. I am going to try to salvage them by using them as garnish like bacon bits though.

lol Hey Sis! I loaned my dehydrator to a friend...I have got to get it back so I can make some raw treats lol...thanks for the tip

Let me testify (I'm a witness too BTW)...this bacun looked like bacon before I got it in!! I licked the bowl too. Oh! I used smoked paprika...makes this is glorious. Dunno if I can do this but here a link for smoked paprika:

This is so yummy! I must be real crap at slicing eggplant (I just used the peeler on a thick setting) because I got bacon in 3 hours! Woooo! Which is awesome, for me, actually. I am gonna save some for sandwiches!

How you like it LT Meadows

This sounds delicious and I can't wait to make it! FYI, I can usually find Liquid Smoke by the BBQ sauce and Worcestershire sauce and such at the grocery store. The kind that I get comes in a small glass bottle, a little larger than most of my spice jars. Use it sparingly because it is strong! A few drops as justagirl suggests will most likely do the job.

I haven't been able to find smoke flavoring, I wanted to try it- thanks for the tip

Hi, I've made eggplant bacon before and it's delish. I added a few drops of smoke flavoring. Not everyone agrees with that, but it does make a great smokey flavor to the "bacon". Keep up the good work.

I could tell by the smile (besides the notation that came up on the recipe)! Would love to get in touch.....LaVerne Dinn, Katy, TX

Do you mean am I a witness? Yep, I sure am! I'm in Demopolis, AL :)

Looking forward to trying this recipe. Just started trying raw a week ago. Would love some good bread recipes, such as onion bread. I copied and pasted the recipe and there was an interesting notation, not visible until I copied it to a document. Are you my sister? ldtryingraw in Katy, TX..

I'm glad you liked them rawpretzela! I snack on them like that too :)

DELICIOUS!!! I ate them more as chips than bacon and they were so good! By the way, does anyone has any idea of how many calories the whole recipe has? Just wondering.. thanks!

i've made the eggplant bacon a couple of times too
it's quite good

I haven't tried his recipes, but I have heard of him. I was inspired by other raw recipes, but this was a winner for me. I love it as a snack too. I hope you like it.

I tried Mattew Kenney's version of this before and it turned out... ok... looking forward to trying yours.
