A sprinkle of fresh parsley adds a vibrant touch before serving.

    This recipe is a lifesaver on busy weeknights! The eggplant turns out perfectly crispy and the flavors are fantastic.

  • Breanna Cole

    I added a little garlic powder to the breadcrumbs and it was amazing! Definitely a new family favorite.

  • Brandt Runolfssonbins

    I used regular breadcrumbs and they worked just fine. I also broiled the eggplant at the end for extra crispiness.

  • Odie Stroman

    So easy and delicious! My kids loved it, even the one who usually doesn't like eggplant.
