Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium eggplants, sliced
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice the eggplants and sprinkle with salt. Let them sit for 30 minutes to draw out moisture.

  4. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the eggplant slices until golden brown.
  5. In a baking dish, layer half of the marinara sauce, followed by half of the eggplant, half of the mozzarella, and half of the Parmesan.
  6. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients.
  7. Top with breadcrumbs and sprinkle with oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until bubbly and golden.
  9. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a healthier version, you can bake the eggplant slices instead of frying them.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like zucchini or bell peppers for extra flavor.
  • This dish can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator before baking.
