Oven Fried Eggplant

OVEN FRIED EGGPLANT

Eggplant, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
Italian bread crumbs
Olive oil cooking spray (I used Pam)

Preheat oven to 375. Coat a cookie sheet with a layer of cooking spray.

Pour bread crumbs in a plate. Bread both sides of the eggplant rounds. Place on the cookie sheet.

Spray the tops of the eggplant evenly with cooking spray (I used a good bit).

Bake for 15-20 minutes. Flip the rounds over and spray them again with cooking spray. Bake an additional 15-20 minutes.


Serve as is or:
1. Use to make eggplant parmesan (tomato sauce, mozzarella, parmesan)
2. Place on bread with eggplant parmesan ingredients to make a sandwich
