    This is my favorite way to enjoy eggplant all summer long! Its decadent, low-carb and plant based comfort food at its best yet made light with no breading and no frying. So good and better than most eggplant recipes I order at restaurants which are typically fried and loaded with calories. You may also like this Baked Eggplant Parmesan dish.,Alt=,If youre thinking your not a fan of eggplant, I know this recipe will change your mind. The eggplant is sliced so thin (used my mandolin for perfect even slices) that it literally melts in your mouth once baked. Servings are super generous and filling.,Eggplant Parmesan,Eggplant Meatballs,Baked Eggplant Sticks,Stuffed Eggplant Parmesan
