Meaty Eggplant Lasagna Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by Johanna

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 eggplants (about 1 1/4-pounds each)
1/4 cup oil
1 pound ground beef
2 cups Amy's Marinara Sauce
16 ounces whole milk mozzarella cheese, shredded
3/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated, about 3 ounces
Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Cut the ends off and peel the eggplant. Slice the eggplant lengthwise into 1/2-inch slices. this should yield about 6 to 8 slices from each eggplant. Brush both sides of the eggplant slices with oil to coat. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet, you may need to do them in two batches. Broil about 3 to 5 minutes per side until tender, and a little browned. Watch them closely, because they can burn quickly. Lightly sprinkle them with salt after removing from the oven. Brown the ground beef, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the marinara sauce and heat through. Layer everything in a greased 7x9x3-inch baking dish in this order: 1/3 of the eggplant slices, 1/3 of the sauce, 1/3 of the mozzarella. Repeat the layering two more times then sprinkle with the parmesan cheese. If you don't have that size baking dish, use a 9x13-inch baking dish and make 2 layers of each ingredient using half of everything per layer in the same order. Bake at 350°F about 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly.

I thought this lasagna was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make this recipe again.

This lasagna was a bit too complicated for me. There were too many steps and ingredients involved. I think I would prefer a simpler lasagna recipe.

I'm not sure what went wrong with my lasagna, but it turned out very dry. The eggplant was tough and the cheese mixture was not very creamy. I would not recommend this recipe.

This lasagna was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time. The eggplant was cooked well, but the overall dish was just a bit too boring.
