Time 1h56m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

kosher salt to taste
2 eggplants, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices
1 pinch ground black pepper
4 cups fresh spinach
½ onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, or to taste
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
½ cup ricotta cheese
1 ½ cups marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Sprinkle kosher salt over eggplant slices. Let excess moisture drain from eggplant, 10 to 15 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels and transfer to baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with black pepper.
  • Combine spinach, onion, and garlic in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir until spinach is wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with Italian seasoning.
  • Mix Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and ricotta cheese together in a bowl. Stir in spinach mixture until well-combined.
  • Spread 2 spoonfuls of spinach mixture evenly over each eggplant slice. Roll up eggplant.
  • Spread 1/4 cup marinara sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange eggplant rolls seam-side down in the dish. Pour remaining marinara sauce over rolls. Cover with mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and golden, about 1 hour. Cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
