Number Of Ingredients 11

1 peeled eggplant, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (about 1 1/4 pounds)
cooking spray
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 (8 ounce) package presliced mushrooms
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, divided
1 (8 ounce) can no-salt-added tomato sauce, divided
2/3 cup about 3 ounces shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided

Top with 1/2 cup tomato sauce and 1/3 cup mozzarella. Spread remaining mushroom mixture over mozzarella; top with remaining eggplant slices. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon pepper; top with remaining tomato sauce.

This dish is a great example of how simple ingredients can come together to create something truly special. The eggplant, mushrooms, and tomatoes are all common ingredients, but the combination of flavors is anything but ordinary.

This dish is even better the next day. The flavors really meld together overnight, and the eggplant gets even more tender.

I love the crispy breadcrumb topping on this dish. It adds a nice textural contrast to the soft eggplant and creamy sauce.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover eggplant. I had some leftover from making baba ganoush, and this was the perfect way to use it up.
