Thank you all for your kind comments on my last post in which I bragged about the eggplants I grew. Some of you asked if I’m going to show them cooked. And I thought I should!
I’ve been using this Eggplant Parmesan recipe for a few years now. It’s quite simple, and my husband says it tastes just the same as at an Italian restaurant.
3 eggplant, peeled and sliced about ¾ inches thick
2 eggs, beaten
4 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs
6 cups spaghetti sauce, divided
1 (16 ounce) package mozzarella cheese, shredded and divided
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Dip eggplant slices in egg, then in bread crumbs. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes on each side.
In a 9x13 inch baking dish spread spaghetti sauce to cover the bottom. Place a layer of eggplant slices in the sauce. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Repeat with remaining ingredients, ending with the cheeses. Sprinkle basil on top.
Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until golden brown.
I got to go; the trick-or-treaters are at the door.
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Halloween!

Hello Olga. thank you for becoming a member on blog 'Relics and Tales'. It is great to meet you. This recipe looks wonderful and I will certainly try it as we love eggplant and vegetarian dishes. I love to cook and crochet and garden - and 'home' life. It is fun to be creative in ones own home. Happy Halloween and all the best from Vancouver Island. Michelle
Recipe sounds similar to my mom's! It sure looks good. Happy Halloween! xo
Olga, this is one of my favorite dishes. I like eggplant very much. hugs, olive
Dearest Olga,
That indeed is a very simple but yummy looking recipe. Will have to try this.
Love to you and hope you had a happy Halloween too for your little ones.
Love to you,

This is one of my favorite dishes! Looks so yummy! Is there a greater satisfaction than preparing a great dish from your own garden produce? I'm glad your husband appreciates you so well!
I'l try this recipe soon. My daughter loves this but never tried making it at home.

Hi Olga,
Your eggplants were picture perfect. They made a delicious looking dish. I will have a better garden next year they just took out a good deal of trees that shaded half of the garden. Hope I get my produce this pretty! Have a great week!

It does look delicious! I'm going shopping this morning so I may try your recipe soon. But first I'll be making pumpkin pies and freezing the rest of our microwaved and mashed up Jack O Lantern!
Hi Olga! Oh, your Eggplant Parmesan looks so delicious! I do love this dish and have made it but your recipe sounds so much tastier! I've got to try it.
