.

Eggplant
Spaghetti Sauce
Parmesan cheese
(I use a mixture of shredded mozarella, provolone, parmesan, its called italian blend)
Bread crumbs
Eggs
Pasta

I peel the entire eggplant before I cut it. You can leave the skin on and it tastes good just don't eat the skin raw. Once I have peeled it, I slice it into thin slices. Dip in egg, then breadcrumbs and then cook in a bit of olive oil. Cook on both sides until center is tender.
Layer
Spaghetti sauce, eggplant, sauce cheese, eggplant, sauce, cheese. Bake at 350 until heated through 20-30 minutes. Serve over angel hair pasta or serve alone. We usually do peas with it.
