INSTRUCTIONS
Cut eggplant into 1/2 inch thick slices; brush cut sides with 1/4 cup of the oil (I use olive oil). Arrange in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; bake, uncovered, in a 450 degree oven until browned and very soft, about 30 minutes. Heat 1 TBSP. oil (I use olive oil) in a frying pan over medium heat; add onion, mushrooms, and garlic and cook until soft. Add tomato sauce, basil and oregano; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Layer about half the eggplant in a shallow 1-1/2 quart (I use a larger one) top with half the sauce, then half the mozzarella and half the Parmesan cheese. Repeat the layers. Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree oven until hot and bubbly, about 25 minutes. Serves 6 Note: For a whole meal casserole, brown and drain 1 lb. lean ground beef, then add it to the cooked sauce. Posted to EAT-L Digest by Elise Smith <epksmith@SONIC.NET> on Nov 18, 1997
A Message from our Provider:
“A thankful heart is one of the primary identifying characteristics of a believer. It stands in stark contrast to pride, selfishness, and worry. And it helps fortify the believer’s trust in the Lord and reliance of His provision, even in the toughest times. No matter how choppy the seas become, a believer’s heart is buoyed by constant praise and gratefulness to the Lord. #John MacArthur”
