Lowfat Eggplant Parmesan

Char, I haven't figured the WW points on this, but it can't be more than 5-6 per serving. A nice alternative to lasagne that Scott actually prefers. And for those of you not sure about eggplant, give it a try...you might be surprised.

Lowfat Eggplant Parmesan

1 eggplant, peeled and cut crosswise into 1/2 inch thick rounds
1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup parmesan
3 eggwhites, stirred up
Shredded lowfat mozarella
1 jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce

Oven to 425º. Mix crumbs and parmesan. Dip eggplant rounds into egg whites then into crumb mixture and slap onto baking sheet. Cook those bad boys for 20 minutes, until a little browned. I use a square tall pyrex dish for the next step, but if you are serving more than 3-4 people, you can use a bigger baking dish and double the recipe. Then assemble the casserole like a lasagne. Sauce, eggplant, cheese...sauce, eggplant, cheese. You get the picture. Bake at 350º for another 20-30 minutes until cheese melts and the smell is making you hungry. Eat with several glasses of red wine.

Yum, I am hungry right now just reading this. Do you think I could sneak it over on your Dad?

Yeah mom! I swear Scott loves it. Eggplant doesn't taste offensive and only absorbs flavor. It's a good sub for the pasta. See you tomorrow....what time are you leaving Carp?

I'm working half a day. Tom wants to leave at noon, so as close to then as we can. We are anxious to get ahold of Owen!
