This poor little eggplant has been sitting on my kitchen counter for a couple of weeks now. But, tonight was the night to cook him up!
First, I cut him into bite-size chunks.
Then, in a large bowl, I mixed him with the following ingredients:
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt & pepper to taste
I transfered the mushy mess into a baking dish, topped it with a few more breadcrumbs, and cooked it on 350*F for 35-40 minutes until the eggplant was soft.
The result was a delicious eggplant “parm” with a subtle spicy kick from the salsa. The outer layer was firm while the inside was soft and spongy.
The next time that I make this dish, I want to add some shredded cheese on top! š
For dessert, I enjoyed a piece of pumpkin cheesecake. Heaven!
(This was easily my favorite photo of the night! š )
