INSTRUCTIONS
How to Prepare: The Sauce In a saucepan, brown the onion, green pepper and mushrooms. Add tomato puree, crushed tomatoes and tomato puree. Season to taste...and let simmer. How to Prepare: The Eggplant Thinly slice eggplant into round discs...and blot with paper towels to absorb moisture. In a medium glass bowl beat the eggs and add the milk to it. Dip the eggplant into the egg mixture and then into the breadcrumbs to coat it. Spray cooking sheet lightly with Pam cooking spray, and then spread eggplant slices onto cookie sheet. This then goes into a 450 degree oven for 20 minutes, flip slices after 10 minutes. Assemble the Dish Begin layering...First the sauce, then the eggplant, more sauce then cheese to fill up pan. Bake assembled dish at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and dish is bubbling. Let the dish rest for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting...or it will be too runny.
