Eggplant Supper Soup Microwave Miracle

To bad the kids didn't like this recipe that much, because my husband and I loved it and I WILL be making it again! Sorry girls.

This is a very hearty dish I adapted from Allrecipes. The eggplant seems to take on a wonderful meaty taste. I personally will be leaving out the macaroni next time, the soup really doesn't need it, and really who needs those extra carbs.
