Instant Oven Fried Eggplant

Submitted by DailyInspiration

"I have not tried this dish yet, but it sounds simple and incredibly delicious! This recipe is from the "Joy of Eating" cookbook. This recipe can be used for oven-fried zucchini as well. I think this will be my "go to" recipe from now on when I make eggplant parmesan. The zucchini sounds absolutely fantastic as an appetizer; especially served with some marinara sauce."

This is so good and easy to make! I loved how the parmesan cheese gets crispy and brown, gives it such a nutty taste. I ate it plain for lunch and it didn't need any sauce, but would be good with a little spaghetti sauce and melted mozz cheese. Made for PRMR.
