Eggplant Parmesan.
My version of eggplant parmesan, a classic Italian dish with beautifully simple flavors. The eggplant is sliced thin and fried, then layered with homemade tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, parmesan, and fresh basil. It’s baked until the cheese is melted and bubbling. It’s a wonderful vegetarian main dish, hearty enough to be served on its own or with a side of spaghetti.
