Eggplant Bake

The original plan for tonight’s dinner was eggplant parm, but I forgot the parm!  I did however pick up some delicious fresh mozzarella cheese so I went with it.  I started by doing the normal egg, breadcrumb and bake portion of eggplant parm.

Eggplant Bake

• 1 large eggplant sliced into rounds
• 1 egg
• 1 cup breadcrumbs of choice
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp Italian spices
• 1 cup favorite pasta sauce
• 2 cups frozen greens
• 1/2 onion
• 1 clove garlic, pressed
• 1 ball mozzarella, sliced

1. Preheat oven to 375
2. Slice eggplant into rounds and dip in egg then mix of breadcrumbs, spices, and garlic powder before placing it on a baking sheet and baking for 30min
3. 15min into cooking sauté the onion and garlic clove in EVOO until clear then add frozen greens and pasta sauce
4. Pull the slices out of the oven and begin to layer – sauce – eggplant – sauce – mozzarella – eggplant – sauce

5.  Put her back in the oven for 20min more, slice and serve!

Super cheesy and delicious!  A fortunate accident of forgetting a key ingredient.

Nick approved, and Sissy begged for a taste.

Not really, she was staring at the light fixture, but we have been missing Sissy pictures on the blog lately.
