Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 eggplant, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (about 1 1/4 pounds)
cooking spray
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup green pepper, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 garlic cloves, chopped
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, divided
1 (8 ounce) can no-salt-added tomato sauce, divided
2/3 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided (shredded)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (grated)

Steps:

  • Salt eggplant slices and place in colander on top of a plate. After 30 minutes, rinse eggplant thoroughly and pat down with paper towels.
  • Preheat broiler.
  • Arrange the eggplant slices on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; broil 3-4 minutes on each side or until lightly browned.
  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add onion and next 6 ingredients (onion through mushrooms). Cover and cook 7 minutes or until tender, stirring mixture occasionally. Increase heat to medium-high; uncover and cook for 2-4 minutes or until liquid evaporates.
  • Spread half of mushroom mixture in bottom of a 1 1/2-quart round baking dish coated with cooking spray. Arrange half of eggplant slices over mushroom mixture; sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Top with 1/2 cup tomato sauce and 1/3 cup mozzarella. Spread remaining mushroom mixture over mozzarella; top with remaining eggplant slices. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon pepper; top with remaining tomato sauce. Cover and bake at 375° for 1 hour. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake, uncovered, 5 minutes or until cheese melts. Let stand 10 minutes.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my eggplant didn't turn out as tender as I would have liked. I think I might have cooked it for too long. Next time, I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs to the sauce, and it turned out much better. I also think it would be good to add some chopped nuts or seeds for some extra crunch.
