Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a large saute pan over medium heat,  
render the bacon until crispy, about 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the onions,  
celery, and bell peppers. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 3 to 4  
minutes. Stir in the eggplant and continue to saute for 3 minutes. Season  
with salt and cayenne. Stir in 2 tablespoons garlic, thyme, parsley and  
green onions. Remove from the heat and turn into a mixing bowl. Stir in the  
corn bread and stock. Mix thoroughly. Season the dressing with salt and  
cayenne. Season each squab with olive oil, salt and cayenne. Stuff each  
cavity of the squabs with about 3/4 cup of the dressing. Toss the shallots  
with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place the stuffed squab and shallots in a  
parchment−lined roasting pan. Place the squab in the oven and roast for 25  
to 30 minutes, or until the squab is golden brown and the juices run clear.  
Remove the pan from the oven and separate the sections of the shallots.  
Place the shallots in a saucepan and cover with the veal reduction. Bring  
the liquid to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 2 minutes. Season  
the sauce with salt and pepper. In a large saute pan, melt the butter. Add  
the haricots verts and the remaining garlic. Season with salt and pepper.  
Saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve the squabs with the haricots verts and a  
ladle of shallot reduction. This recipe yields 6 servings.
