I saw really pretty Japanese eggplants and bought some thinking I'll roast them and put them in a lettuce salad for the Purim seuda.

I'm at a loss what else to put in though and what kind of dressing.

I was thinking maybe avocado, red onion and some kind of crunch?

Any other ideas?

Maybe Persian cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, lettuce, shredded carrots, purple onions and for a dressing you can do lemon juice, light olive oil, salt

Sweet potatoes cubes with the things you said.
Crunch could be La Choy crunchy noodles
Or sliced almonds or pepitas!

Balsamic vinegarette
Or other creamy vinaigrette

Dates would be good
If I want crunch I add pistachios or snap peas or roasted chickpeas

I would slice the eggplants into small rounds and roast I’d add some romaine, arugula, red onion, avocado,pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and thinly sliced mini sweet peppers

Greens, cucumber, pepper, olives
If you're serving dairy you can add haloumi cheese
There's a recipe on between carpools

Greens, roasted eggplant, roasted chickpeas, tomatoes, red onion. Maybe an Italian or Greek dressing like a light vinaigrette.

This is what I do with them
Slice them up and roast

Then I take the jar of eggplant purée
Mix that with Tehina
Spread it on a plate
Top with roasted eggplant slices
Then drizzle the whole thing with pomegranate molasses

These are all ingredients I usually have at home

If I have pomogranite seeds I sprinkle some on top

Tuxedo sesame seeds or French fried onions crushed

Maple miso dressing or sesame ginger

Maybe include roasted red peppers
