Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    1.5 Yellow Squash, cut into 1/2" slices
    1 Medium Zucchini, cut into 1/2" slices
    .5 Medium Eggplant, cut into 1" cubes
    .5 Medium Yellow Onion, chopped
    2 cloves of Garlic, minced
    1 10oz can of Rotel (or any other diced tomatoes with chilies)
    .5 cup Canned Diced Tomatoes
    .5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    .5 cup shredded 2% Mexican Blend cheese

    Butter-Flavored Non-Fat Cooking Spray
    Garlic Salt
    Pepper

Directions

I cooked this in a toaster oven. Preheat oven to 400. Line a baking dish with foil and spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking (and SUPER easy clean up!).

Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat. When skillet is hot, coat with cooking spray. Add onions and garlic. Sautee until soft. Add Rotel, diced tomatoes, eggplant, squash, and zucchini to pan. Sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper to taste. Sautee for 5 minutes.

Layer the eggplant/squash mixture and Parmesan, alternating until eggplant mixture is gone. Top with remaining Parmesan (if any) and the Mexican blend cheese. Bake for 20 minutes (or until veggies are cooked to desired doneness).

Makes 6 servings.

    Very good! Although, I did change it up a bit. Chopped all my veggies into more or less cubes - quartered the squash and zucchini so there were smaller pieces. Used Italian diced tomatoes, added chopped sweet peppers and only used mozzarella. A lot like lasagna, only healthier! :) - 4/8/13

    Delicious! We added purple peppers, hot peppers, fresh garden tomatoes (instead of canned), and quinoa (for protein). Used olive oil to sauté. - 8/22/11

    Really good, couldn't stop eating it. The only change I'll make next time it to cut the vegetables into thinner slices. - 8/14/10

    I loved this recipe. Super tasty. It makes up a huge batch, so I suggest if you are the only one eating this to cut the recipe in half. It was great as leftovers also. - 6/3/10

    INCREDIBLE!! I added half of a yellow bell pepper and half of an orange bell pepper instead of a yellow squash because I didn't have a yellow squash. It was still delicious. - 9/3/15

    This was good. A bit watery using the canned tomatoes, it is better with fresh tomatoes. I used cherry tomatoes cut in half and that helped with the liquid content, plus it had a fresher flavor. Also try it with no chili's, use sweet green peppers and Italian cheeses with italian seasonings. YUMMY! - 7/15/15

    Very good recipe!! I was looking for a way to use my eggplant before it went bad. Added a few extras that also needed to be used: 1 red bell pepper, 1/2 jalapeño, 3-4 mushrooms, and 2 medium tomatoes. Was a side dish for chili (yes, kinda odd pair) and my husband said it was better than the chil - 2/15/21

    Quite tasty! Next time I might use real tomatos and chilies. It seemed a bit watery. I did all the chopping when I got home from the grocery store, compiled the ingredients and sauteed then layered into dish on a different day, refrigerated, and then popped it in the oven next day. Easy! - 10/3/11

    Made this with some red and orange bell pepper instead of the eggplant (my parents were scared to try eggplant) and also used italian diced tomatoes and added some basil and oregano. It turned out great. We had it as side dish, but I put leftovers over polenta as a main dish the next night. - 9/7/11

    very goood, I'm always looking for recipes that use eggplant and the fact that it uses zucchini is an added bounus this time of year when there is so much zucchini that you can't even give it away! I will make this again, and again. - 8/13/11

    Wonderful! Reminds me of Lasagna. We didn't have any of the Mexican cheese on hand so we used the goat cheese that we had along with the parmesan. We doubled the recipe and put some in the freezer. - 8/12/11

    This sounds good, and I can veganize it by swapping out the dairy cheeses and adding in Galaxy Vegan Parmesan and Daiya shreds (cheddar, pepperjack or mozzarella). Can't wait to try it. I have everything except the squash, and I'm going shopping today! Yum! UPDATE: I decided to make it tonight! - 7/20/11

    Loved it!! I like eggplant, but have never known what to do with it. My husband didn't even notice it was vegetarian until he was done eating. Instead of using tomatoes with chilies (I don't like them), I used the tomatoes with garlic, oregano, and basil. Yum! - 8/17/10
