Prepare eggplant - After slicing the eggplant into 1/4" thick slices, put it in a deep bowl or pot of salted water to soak. The salt water pulls the bitterness out of the eggplant. Soak it for at least 30 minutes. The water will be discarded & it will be a purplish green in color.
Then, put a small amount of olive oil in a non-stick pan. Add eggplant slices and cook until somewhat soft. Put softened slice in an olive oil coated baking dish (12" x 15"). After putting a layer of eggplant, put a layer of sauce, and then a layer of cheese. Repeat until all eggplant & sauce is used. Top with remaining cheese. Bake at 350 F until top is golden & bubbly.
