Slice eggplant into 1/2" slices and place in sprayed baking pan. Mix 1/3 cup Italian bread crumbs with 1/2 tsp. garlic salt, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Mix well and spread on tops of eggplant slices. But before putting mixture on eggplant , place 1/4 " slices of fresh tomato on eggplant then spread crumbs mixture . top with Parmesean cheese sprinkled on, Bake til tops are bubbly at 350*. Enjoy!!

I make egg plant pizzas! I slice it into rounds and spritz with olive oil then roast in countertop convection oven until starting to carmelize. In a skillet I brown all of my topping I like, add pizza sauce & spread on top of each round & cover with cheese. Bake again until cheese melts. Yummy & gluten free!

Oh I love eggplant, have gone to raising the Japanese eggplant as it is long and skinny and you don't have the seed cavity you do with the big oval shaped ones. I have beaten an egg and added a little milk and then dipped the eggplant in that and then roll in cornmeal and fry until crisp. I have also taken these fried slices and layered them in a baking dish, added some spaghetti sauce and sprinkled mozarello cheese on top and baked in the oven for a short while until heated thru and cheese is melted and starts to brown, yummmmmmm. I have also made a scalloped eggplant casserole, but don't remember the ingredients, will have to look for my recipe for that. Trouble is I am the only one who likes it, hubby doesn't touch it, but it's good stuff no matter how it's fixed

I used to not like it, until I figured out I should peel it. Now I peel it, cut into cubes, fry with onions and peppers until it turns dark and soft. Add to spaghetti sauce or pasta. Love it!

Smother your eggplant with onions, garlic, and bellpeppers(chop these). Then mix it with cooked rice. Very tasty.

I stuff mine w/a mixture of Italian sausage, bread crumbs, onions, garlic, the scooped out portion of the eggplant and topped w/a sprinkle Parmesan cheese. You can freeze these for eating later in the winter.

We like eggplant grilled with zucchini, mushrooms and onions (and sometimes sweet peppers). I cut everything into similar sizes then marinate the vegetables in some low fat Italian salad dressing in a zip lock bag for approximately 30minutes. We grill the vegetables in a grill basket (i.e. stainless steel "bowl" with holes in it) until some of them are a little bit charred. Easy and delicious with just about anything from the grill!

I don't like Eggplant at all one bit, except in Ratatouille. Ohhhh, it's soooo good! Edie

You can fry it just you do chicken, you can make it stuffed with crab meat, you can make a dip. Go to Cooks . com and maybe you will find some recipes there.
