This was the first time I have cooked eggplant and it came out amazing. For the main dish of dinner it was so filling, meat was surprisingly not missed.
Ingredients
- 1-1/4 eggplant, peeled and thinly sliced
- 3/4 eggs, beaten
- 1-1/2 cups and 2 tablespoons Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 2-1/3 cups and 1 tablespoon spaghetti sauce, divided
- 3/8 (16 ounce) package mozzarella cheese, shredded and divided
- 3 tablespoons and 1/2 teaspoon grated Parmesan cheese, divide
- 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
- Dip eggplant slices in egg, then in bread crumbs. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 5 minutes on each side.
- In a 9x13 inch baking dish spread spaghetti sauce to cover the bottom. Place a layer of eggplant slices in the sauce. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat with remaining ingredients, ending with the cheeses. Sprinkle basil on top.
- Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until golden brown.
This is a great version of the dish. This was my first visit to your blog, but I'll be back. I really like the food and recipes you share with your readers and I'll definitely be back. I hope you have a great day. Blessings...Mary
