Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    1 Eggplant, unpeeled
    12 ounces of Chicken Breast, no skin/bone
    1/2 cup Newman's Own Marinara Sauce (or any pasta suace)
    3 ounces of Cheddar Cheese
    Mushrooms, fresh
    1.5 tbsp Olive Oil
    Salt
    Pepper

Tips

Make sure you measure your chicken and cheese!


Directions

1) Pre-cook the chicken, I baked mine with a bit of water and spices.
2) Slice the eggplant into 4 larger slices, and 4 smaller. Each serving weighed around 100 grams (4 large as 1 each, 2 small as 1 serving each).
3) Brush on the olive oil (with salt and pepper if desired) onto the eggplant and bake for 10-12 mins. I used a pizza sheet so did not need to flip them but if using a normal baking sheet then flip half way through.
4) Measure out 1/2 oz of cheese, and divide chicken breast evenly for each serving. The recipe is 12 oz chicken raw & boneless. I measured again to divide the cooked weight equally: 12 oz raw was only 7.1 oz cooked)
5) Spread the 1/2 cup of marinara among the cut pieces of eggplant.
6) Top with cheese and chicken, mushrooms and whichever vegtables you desire and bake for 5 minutes.

Enjoy!
