Eggplant, mozzarella cheese, olive oil, panko crumbs, parmigiano reggiano cheese, pasta sauce, ricotta cheese

I love the idea of eggplant parmesan.  But, the problem for me has always been the breading.  It’s just too much.  It overpowers the flavor of the eggplant and I like that flavor.  So when I saw Grilled Eggplant Parmesan on the Food & Wine website, my light bulb lit right up!  Continue reading →
