Ingredients
2 large eggplants, sliced into 12 - 1/2 inch rounds (total max weight = 2 lbs)
1/2 cup of italian seasoned bread crumbs
2 beaten eggs
1/2 tbl olive oil
3 slices of onion, chopped
1/2 tbl minced garlic
1 - 24 oz jar of spaghetti sauce + 1/4 cup of water added
1 tbl dried basil leaves
2 cups (1 - 8 oz bag) part skim shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup of reduced fat parmesan
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees . Place bread crumbs in a small bowl or container. In a small bowl or container, beat two eggs. Cover a large cookie sheet with aluminum foil.
Take a round of eggplant, dip it into the beaten egg until fully covered, and then drag through the bread crumbs until completely coated; transfer to cookie sheet. Repeat for each round of eggplant and then bake in oven for 15 minutes on each side.
While eggplant is baking, heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add jar of spaghetti sauce and ¼ cup of water. Add basil and stir.
Lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove eggplant from oven when done. Reduce the oven heat to 300 degrees. Ladle a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of a 13” by 9” Pyrex dish. Place 6 of the eggplant rounds in the dish.
Ladle tomato sauce over the eggplant. Top with the mozzarella, then the parmesan cheeses. Layer the last 6 eggplant rounds, add sauce and cheeses as before. Bake for 20 minutes until cheese is soft and bubbly.
Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
