low-fat eggplant parmesan
I usually don't trust Weight Watchers recipes, but this one was great. I did it with half zucchini, half eggplant.
cooking spray
1/3 cup seasoned bread crumbs, Italian-style
1 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 medium raw eggplant (I needed a lot more than this)
2 large egg white(s), lightly beaten
1 1/2 cup canned tomato sauce (I used TJ's marinara sauce)
1/2 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded (hi, Weight Watchers, you need more than this :) )
Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 9 X 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning and garlic powder in a medium-size bowl; set aside. Remove skin from eggplant and trim off ends; slice eggplant into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
Dip eggplant first into egg whites and then into bread crumb mixture. Bake eggplant on a nonstick cookie sheet until lightly browned, about 20 to 25 minutes, flipping once.
Place a layer of eggplant on bottom of prepared baking dish, then add 1/3 of tomato sauce and 1/3 of mozzarella cheese. Repeat with 2 more layers in same order. Bake until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling, about 10 minutes more. Slice into 4 pieces and serve.
