Stuffed Eggplant Parmesan

SUBMITTED BY: MARGARITADEE  PHOTO BY: Emily 

"A twist on the old standby! I like to use my homemade tomato sauce for this recipe, as well as using crushed croutons as the bread crumbs. A hint for shelling the eggplants - use a grapefruit spoon to start!"

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 medium eggplants, cut in half lengthwise and hollowed out to 1/4 inch flesh rim
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
  • 2 cups tomato sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Roughly chop eggplant centers, and add to pan with onion, garlic, oregano, and pepper. Cook and stir until lightly browned. Spoon mixture back into eggplant, and sprinkle each with Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, and parsley. Place in a shallow baking dish, and cover with tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese.
