Number of Servings: 15

Ingredients

    1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    2 large eggplants; peeled
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    4 eggs; beaten
    2 cups bread crumbs
    5 cups marinara sauce
    16 oz reduced fat mozzarella cheese; thinly sliced
    4 oz parmesan cheese; grated
    Crushed red pepper; to taste (optional)

Directions

1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2) Heat oil, a couple tablespoons at a time, in a large skillet, over medium heat. Slice eggplant into 1/4-inch slices; lengthwise. Place flour, beaten eggs and bread crumbs into three separate containers. Coat sliced eggplant in flour, beaten eggs and then bread crumbs; shaking off excess. Place in heated skillet and brown on both sides; about 2 minutes each. Continue with remaining eggplant until all is browned; using olive oil as needed.
3) Spray a 9"x13" baking dish with cooking spray. Spoon a light coating of marinara sauce (seasoned with crushed red pepper-optional) on bottom of dish, then the eggplant, more sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Continue layering until all the eggplant is gone; about three layers. End with sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
4) Bake in the oven for 25 minutes or until bubbly and cheese is melted.
