The Great Veggie Challenge Continues


O'Malley & The Eggplant

For the next exciting Installment of The Great Veggie Challenge We Have:
The Eggplant

I have never cooked an eggplant.  I decided to make a low fat version of eggplant parmesan.
I could not locate my usual vegetable display model, Chanel, but Oliver Thomas O'Malley
was bribed into playing the role with some carefully situated cat treats.
He still did a very poor job, in my opinion.

Okay so I peeled the eggplant, which is a shame because they are a very pretty color of purple and how often do you get purple vegetables?   Then I baked them which made it lower fat than frying them in lovely olive oil after being smothered in lovely bread crumbs......
Then I made a nice sause and layered with mozarella cheese and parmesan cheese
Voila!  Eggplant Parmesan
Tasty.  We gave it a thumbs up.

The Finished Product

Eggplant is awesome no matter how prepared. You should try ratatouille!

I like the look of 'it' but have never tried it. Your recipe looks good though.
