    Eggplant Italiano

    This taste like eggplant parmasean, but a little healthier!

    6 round, 1/2-inch thick slices eggplant, peeled
    1/4 cup egg substitute (I use the real deal)
    1/2 cup Italian Bread Crumbs (You can use WW and add
    Italian Seasoning)
    Vegetable cooking spray
    1 cup tomato sauce (SF of course!)
    1/2 tsp. oregano
    1/2 tsp. basil
    5 ounces part skim-milk mozzarella cheesew, grated or sliced

    Preheat over to 450 degrees. Using mallet, pound eggplant slices to 1/4-inch thickness. Dip eggplant slices in egg substitute, then in bread crumbs. Saute breaded eggplant in skillet sprayed with nonstick vegetable spray.

    Place cooked eggplant in bottom of 10 x 10 baking dish. Top with tomato sauce, oregano and basil. Arrange cheese over top. Bake at 450 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. Finish browning cheese under broiler if necessary. Makes 6 servings.
