Microwave Eggplant (Aubergine) Parmesan image

This becomes a healthier dish by microwaving instead of frying the eggplant (eggplant is like a sponge and quickly soaks up the cooking oil). This recipe has good flavor but if you think you would miss not having meat, you could add some cooked ground beef (about 1/2lb) as one of the layers.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my eggplant parmesan turned out soggy. I think I might have overcooked the eggplant.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think I would have preferred a recipe that was quicker and easier.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it would have been better with more spices.

This recipe was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with less cheese.
