I like preparing slices as you would for parmesan:
Egg wash and breading, lightly fried!.
Layer two of these with any cheese in between and any bottled sauce on top, from red to white and bake about 15 to 20 minutes at around 350 F!.
or
layer a breaded slice with a thin slice of ham and a slice of mozzarela, roll it like a taquito and bake for approx, 10 to 15 minutes, at 350 F!.

8 1/2-inch slices eggplant
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
8 slices whole-grain country bread

Well, being Greek, the best way I've found to use up loads of Aubergines is to slice them and griddle them, or add to moussaka or make a dip out of them =]Www@FoodAQ@Com
