OVEN-FRIED EGGPLANT CUTLETS
I can't remember where I found this recipe, but it is the only way my family likes eggplant...even the grandkids like it, and that's a miracle! I suggest adding different types of cheeses to the breading if you like because the cheese gives a lot of flavor and crispiness.Shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese also works well. I also usually double the recipe for a large eggplant.The amount of garlic is also a personal preference.

- Trim and discard ends of eggplant.
- Cut the eggplant horizontally into 3/4 inch slices.
- Dip each slice into the mayo mixture to coat both sides.
- Press both sides into the crumb mixture, pressing to adhere the breading.
- Arrange each crumb coated slice on the baking sheet.
