Microwave Eggplant (Aubergine) Parmesan image

This becomes a healthier dish by microwaving instead of frying the eggplant (eggplant is like a sponge and quickly soaks up the cooking oil). This recipe has good flavor but if you think you would miss not having meat, you could add some cooked ground beef (about 1/2lb) as one of the layers.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of chicken. It was a delicious and healthy alternative.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few extra ingredients to give it more flavor. I usually add some garlic, basil, and oregano.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my eggplant parmesan turned out mushy. I think I might have cooked it for too long.
