We are not eggplant eaters, but since I planted some eggplant I thought I'd better figure out how to cook a recipe we would like. This one caught my eye because of the capers - we LOVE them. I found the time long to make this - but what the heck - I was free that day and BOY was it worth it. My sister & I were sharing so we put in containers & froze some. Hope they come out OK. We added only 2 things, because my husband likes meat, so we put in a couple of hot italian sausages crumbled up, and I don't seem to have good luck with bread crumbs sticking so we used a tip we heard and added a couple tablespoons potatoe flakes to the bread crumbs. WOW - did that every help - OH and we also used half panko crumbs and half bread crumbs. ANYWAY - HOORAY - IT is a WINNER for us.

This is almost identical to my ages-old recipe, but I never thought to add olives and capers. Inspired idea...delicious!

I LOVE this recipe! Trying not to eat it all up. I made one casserole. I used Ragu instead of making the sauce. Looking forward to making again.

I also just made half of the recipe and it was so delicious! If you do decide to make just half I think only getting one eggplant is enough. Instead of cutting it length wise we cut it into circles and we ended up not needing the other eggplant. Other than that we stuck to the directions and were VERY pleased with the outcome. I am not a beginner cook but surely am not a great chef but that being said, even though this does take a little more prep time than usual, it is not difficult. This is sure to be a crowd pleaser at any meal!
