directions

  • Heat oil in large skillet on med-high heat.
  • Preheat oven at 350°F.
  • Peel eggplant and cut in 1/2 inch slices, lay flat and salt the eggplant, set aside.
  • Cut tomato into 1/2 inch slices.
  • Beat eggs in large shallow bowl; set aside.
  • Combine breadcrumbs with salt, pepper, basil, oregano, parsley and garlic powder, set in large shallow bowl.
  • When the eggplant starts to sweat, blot up liquid with paper towel, this takes the bitterness out of the eggplant.
  • Dip eggplant into egg, then into breadcrumbs.
  • Pan fry the eggplant until golden brown.
  • Repeat same process with tomato slices.
  • *NOTE* Breadcrumbs tend to soak up the oil when cooking, so you may need more to finish frying sliced tomatoes/veggies.
  • When all slices are fried.
  • Take large baking dish and cover bottom of pan with gravy.
  • Place a layer of breaded eggplant on the gravy, followed by a thin layer of mozzarella cheese.
  • Then place a layer of tomato slices on top the cheese.
  • Next place a thin layer of gravy over the tomato followed by another layer of cheese.
  • Repeat until casserole dish is full.
  • The last layers should be gravy and cheese.
  • Place full casserole into preheated oven.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes.
  • Enjoy.

  1. Anastasia, this recipe is AWESOME!!! I used Italian seasoned bread crumbs, but other than that I followed the recipe exactly. I wasn't very sure of this recipe at first, as I have never really cared for green tomatoes, but I was delightfully surprised by this dish. Crusty garlic bread, and a green salad....this was a meal made in Heaven!! I like the fact that it does not contain meat, but yet it is so satisfying. Please do share some more of your recipes with us:) ~Manda
