Eggplant lasagna

This is a combo of my recipe and my grandmothers. I lightened up some of the ingredients to make it lower in calories but still full of flavor.

Ingredients

  1. 1 x-large eggplant of 2 medium ones sliced into thin rounds
  2. 3 eggs scrambled. 2 for eggplant dip and 1 for meat mixture
  3. Italian bread crumbs
  4. 2 lbs ground turkey seasoned with S&P, browned, drained, and cooled
  5. 2 lbs low fat ricotta
  6. 1 quart homemade pasta sauce
  7. 2 cups low fat mozzarella shredded
  8. 1 handful fresh basil, 1 tsp dried oregano, and Parmesan cheese if you want
  9. Salt and pepper ingredients as you go

Steps

  1. Brown the 2 lbs of ground turkey with S&P, and drain. Cool then add ricotta, 1 scrambled egg, and about 1/3 of the pasta sauce. Add herbs and Parmesan cheese

  2. Cook egg dipped and breaded eggplant on greased sheet for 25 min. You should have 3 pan fills of eggplant to layer once done. Bake eggplant on 425 until golden.

  3. Layer eggplant, ricotta mixture, a little sauce and continue to layer. You should have 3 eggplant layers and 2 ricotta layers.

  4. Top with mozzarella cheese and bake for 1 hour at 375. Enjoy!
