Ingredients
- 1 medium eggplant
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup bread crumbs with Italian Seasoning
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup Pasta sauce - I used a spicy marinara
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese - or mozzarella if you prefer
- Fresh basil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Spray baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside, you may need two baking sheets.
- Break both eggs into a bowl and beat.
- In a separate bowl add the bread crumbs and grated Parmesan cheese and mix well.
- Peel the skin from the eggplant, I just used a potato peeler.
- Cut the eggplant into 1/4 inch slices.
- Dip each eggplant slice into the egg and then into the bread crumb mixture, making sure to coat it well.
- Place the coated eggplant slice onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Continue to bread each eggplant slice until complete. Your hands will get messy.
- Place the baking sheets into the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes remove the eggplant and flip the slices.
- Place the baking sheets back into the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
- Remove for the oven and top each slice with approximately one tablespoon of sauce and a pinch of the shredded cheese.
- Place the eggplant back into the oven for an additional 10 - 15 minutes to warm the sauce and melt the cheese.
- Remove from oven, top with fresh basil if desired.
- Enjoy!
Notes
