In a 13x9 pan, spray with cooking spray evenly to keep eggplant from sticking. Set aside.
Peel and slice eggplant in long strips. Place first layer of eggplant on bottom of pan. Top with cottage cheese and egg mixture. Layer on tomato, onion, mushroom, garlic mixture, then layer burger/sausge, then layer w/ mozzarella cheese and parmasean. Place another layer of eggplant on top of that, and repeat until all ingredients are used up, ending with shredded mozzarella last and on top. Sprinkle w/ remaining parmasean. Slice roma tomato thin, and place on top of Mozzarella cheese (final layer only) sprinkle w/ Basil.
Bake for 45 minutes, covered in foil. Remove foil and bake for another 10 minutes to bubble cheese. Because Mozzarella is fat free, it may not brown or bubble well.
