Delicious! The salting and slicing takes some time but it wasn't really any longer than any other meal to me and it's well worth it in my opinion. I did the vegetable chopping the night before so that everything was ready the next evening when it was time to cook
I only used breadcrumbs on half the eggplant because someone was on a low/no-carb diet. I didn't taste any major difference in the side that had been breaded and the side that hadn't been.
I layered the dish, eggplant, sauteed ingredients, cheese, eggplant, sauteed ingredients, tomatoes, cheese and followed the timing instructions exactly.
It was a little wet/runny when I first served it, which I assume was due to the juice from the stewed tomatoes but it was still delicious. I'll just have to adjust that next time. Upon cooling and reheating the leftovers it was no longer an issue.
My cousin ate it the first time I prepared it and loved it. She made it a variation of it a couple nights later, adding chicken and broccoli to the dish.
I'll definitely make this again. It's delicious, everyone loved it including a kid. It's a great way to get veggies into your diet and a nice alternative to regular steamed veggies.
