We really like eggplant and would rather have it baked than fried. This can be served as a main dish or side dish. -Donna Wardlow-Keating, Omaha, Nebraska

    Delicious summer eggplant are fried and then smothered in a tangy marinara sauce and creamy mozzarella cheese. This recipe is a great summer spin on this Italian dinner classic.

I made this receipe for my family. They like traditional eggplant Parmesan, but the roasting idea sounded good. I did modify it some. I used 2 eggplant peeled and sliced bushed with olive oil and sprinkled with dried garlic and basil. I chopped 1 medium onion and sauted in olive oil until tender. I added a jar of spagetti sauce. I sprayed a baking dish and placed a layer of eggplant a cup of the sauce and sprinkled a cup of shredded mozzarella and a 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese, then added another layer like the first baked covered for 30 minutes and uncovered for 5 additional minutes. I have made it twice now with no leftovers.
