"Since New Jersey is the Garden State, I think this recipe represents our region. This dish uses a lot of vegetables out of the garden."

DIRECTIONS
Cut eggplant into 1/4-in.-thick slices. Place in a colander over a plate; sprinkle with salt. Let stand for 30 minutes. Rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, garlic salt and pepper. In another shallow bowl, beat eggs. Dip eggplant into eggs, then coat with crumb mixture.
In a large skillet, cook eggplant in 2 tablespoons oil for 2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Transfer to an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. In the same skillet, saute the green pepper, onion and mushrooms in remaining oil for 5 minutes or until pepper and onion are crisp-tender. Sprinkle over eggplant. Top with tomatoes.
Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes. Uncover; place cheese slices over the top. Bake 25-30 minutes longer or until cheese is lightly browned.

This was a fantastic recipe. However, A few changes were made, which I believe made this side dish even better. Instead of stewed tomatoes..sliced roma tomatoes were used. Also thinly sliced fresh mozzarella was used instead of packaged. Instead of a large baking dish we used small personal sized dishes and only had to bake for 10 minutes and then an extra 10 minutes with the cheese on....which was a HUGE time saver!

This is the best eggplant recipe I have ever made. My husband and I both love it! Served it over spaghetti. Yummy! I added some oregano and basil to the tomatoes. Also added some parmesan before the mozzarella. The recipe does not say whether to drain the tomatoes or not. I used diced tomatoes undrained to which I had added the oregano and basil. Definitely need to include the tomato juice if using over spaghetti. If I were serving this as a side dish though, I would leave the juice out to make it less sloppy. But it is wonderful as a pasta topping! Will definitely make again and again.

Very tasty! I made the recipe as is. It was very simple to follow. I agree with other reviewers about the prep time. It took me double the time listed (45 mins). Prep time is a huge factor for me so this made for a crazy evening. Also, after I put the cheese on top, it was well done after 20 mins. Thanks for the recipe!

This dish will be a regular in our house. When I sauted the gr. pepper, mushrooms, and onion I also added some fresh Oregano from the garden, chopped. I then layed this dish - eggplant, sauted ingred., and sprinkled parmesean and shredded Mozzarella cheese, repeated the layer until all ingrediants were used up. Topped with canned diced tomatoes and baked according to direcitions. When it was time to add the cheese, since I used shredded mozzarella I baked for another 5 minutes and it came out perfect. Thank you for this recipe:)

What a wonderful recipe. I made it a main dish by adding venison burger and italian sausage with some italian seasoning. My six guests raved over this new interesting dish.

Eggplant slices should be cut thicker to really feature the main ingredient. This reminded me of a really great veggie lasagna. It was a hit with my family and friends.

This dish is very versatile and it's delicious. I prepared it following the instructions but next time I'll prepare my own tomato sauce to avoid the sweetness of the sauce that one get in stores. Definitely, i recommend that you try this. Thanks to the original submitter!
