Ingredients

    2 small or 1 large eggplant, about two pounds total
    1 1/2 large onions, thinly sliced
    1 lb. lean ground beef or chuck
    1 bell pepper, chopped
    2 cloves garlic, chopped
    2 cups fresh tomato, chopped
    1 Tbsp. dried or 3 Tbsp. fresh basil
    1 tsp. dried Italian herbs
    1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
    1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Slice unpeeled eggplant into 1/4' slices and set aside.
Brown ground beef; drain and set aside.
Finely chop the garlic and saute it with bell pepper. Add the browned ground beef, chopped fresh tomato, basil, and Italian herbs. Bring it to a simmer. Lightly grease a 9" x 13" casserole dish. Place a single layer of eggplant slices in the bottom of the dish. Place over it half of the meat sauce, then a layer of sliced onions. Sprinkle over it half of the bread crumbs. Then layer again with eggplant, meat sauce, onion slices, and the rest of the bread crumbs. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese over all. Cover and bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees; then remove the cover and bake another 10-15 minutes.

    Very Good
    Very good, however I would change a few things. I would chop the onion rather than the thin rounds. I would double or maybe triple the garlic, and I would add a can of diced tomatoes in addition to the fresh tomatoes. - 8/30/17
