    Eggplant Parmesan


    Source of Recipe


    unknown

    List of Ingredients




    2 medium eggplant fruits peeled and very thinly sliced (or
    try 4 "Japanese" small eggplants)
    2 small zucchini sliced
    1 large sweet onion chopped
    1 lb mushrooms sliced (I used button)
    1 lb ground beef
    1/2 - 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
    3-4 garlic cloves thinly sliced
    1 jar of no sugar added pasta sauce -- I used Classico's
    Fire roasted tomato & garlic
    1 pt ricotta cheese
    sliced mozzarella

    Recipe



    Soak eggplant slices in salted water 15-20 minutes -- rinse
    and dry well
    Brown ground beef with 1/2 onion and Italian seasoning
    Brown eggplant in olive oil -- press slices between paper
    towels when done to remove excess oil (eggplant can really
    absorb oil)
    Saut� onions, mushrooms, zucchini and garlic
    Layer all eggplant in bottom of 9x13 pan
    Spread ricotta cheese over eggplant.
    Spread ground beef over cheese
    Pour 1/2 sauce over mixture.
    Spread saut�ed veggies over sauce
    Pour remaining sauce over veggies
    Top with sliced mozzarella to entirely cover casserole
    Bake 350 15-20 minutes until cheese is brown and bubbly.
