Ingredients
-
2 eggplant, sliced into 1/4" slices
3 egg whites
3 tbs water
1 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
4 cups pasta sauce
1.5 cup Shredded Mozzarella cheese (I used 2%)
1 cup Fresh Mozzarella (optional)
Basil and oregano to taste
Tips
* When dredging the eggplant, I found it easier to only put a little bread crumbs in a dish at a time. add more as more is needed to coat the eggplant. Otherwise, you'll end up with clumps of breadcrumbs that don't want to stick to your eggplant.
Directions
*Preheat oven to 400 deg. Place aluminum foil over baking sheets and spray with non-stick spray.
*Combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese
*in a bowl. In a shallow dish, add water to the egg whites and wisk until frothy.
* Dip eggplant slices in the egg, then dredge iin the breadcrumbs/cheese. (see tip below)
*Once both sides are coated, place eggplant slice on the baking sheet(s).
*Bake eggplant for 15 min. Remove from oven and flip. Return to oven and bake another 15 min.
* After eggplant is again removed from the oven, layer eggplant, sauce, and cheese in a glass casserole dish. (I made thin slices of fresh mozzarella cheese and placed them on top of each eggplant slice, then coated with sauce and topped with shredded mozzarella. Add spices to taste.
*Top with grated Parmesan and bake for 20 mins.
*Allow to cool for 10 mins and enjoy!
