INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (300g)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (125g)
4 large Egg Whites (120g)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Mozzarella Cheese (28g)
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs (30g)
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese (5g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the eggplant into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Optionally, lightly salt the slices and let them sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture, then pat dry.
Dip each eggplant slice lightly into the egg whites, ensuring an even coating.
Arrange the eggplant slices on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon a small amount of tomato sauce onto each slice, then sprinkle with low-fat mozzarella.
In a small bowl, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. Evenly sprinkle this mixture over the tomato sauce and cheese on each slice.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the eggplant is tender and the topping is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh basil if desired, and serve warm.
