Viewed: 54 - Published at: 9 years agoIngredients
- 1 x eggplant peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch slices (about 1 1/4 lbs) Cooking spray
- 1 c. onion minced
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 2 x cloves garlic chopped
- 8 ounce mushrooms sliced
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 8 ounce tomato sauce
- 1/2 c. mozzarella cheese part skim lowfat milk
- 1/4 c. Parmesan cheese
Method
- Arrange eggplant slices on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; broil 3 min on each side or possibly till lightly browned.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray [I used extra virgin olive oil spray] over medium heat; add in onions and garlic.
- Saute/fry for a few min and then add in mushrooms.
- Saute/fry for a few min more till vegetables are tender.
- Stir in Italian seasoning.
- Spread half of mushroom mix in bottom of 1 1/2 qt round baking dish coated with cooking spray.
- Arrange half of eggplant slices over mushrooms; sprinkle with 1/8 tsp pepper.
- Top with 1/2 c. tomato sauce and 1/3 c. mozzarella.
- Repeat layers except for cheese.
- Cover and bake at 375F for 1 hour.
- Top with rest of mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses; bake uncovered 5 min or possibly till cheese melts.
- Let stand 10 min.
- NOTES : This was wonderful!
- I used about 1/2 tsp oregano and 1 tsp basil instead of the Italian seasoning.
- Original recipe called for 2/3 c. mozzarella cheese and 1/4 tsp salt.
- I usually use either Sargento Lite or possibly Kraft 2% lowfat milk cheese, or possibly sometimes a mix of either of these with a fatfree cheese.
- I made this last week and it was delicious.
- I served it with rice, but pasta or possibly couscous would work well, also.
