Answers:
LOW CALORIE EGGPLANT
1 eggplant
1 onion
1 tbsp. butter
Lg. can tomatoes
Peel and cut up eggplant; boil about 15 minutes (like squash) or until done; drain. Saute onion in butter. add drained tomatoes, stewing into a sauce like consistency. (Add cubes of cheese if you wish.) Put eggplant into greased casserole; add stewed up tomatoes. Put cheese or buttered crumbs on top and bake 15 to 20 minutes in 350 degree oven.
EGGPLANT PARMEGIANA WITH MEAT
1 lg. eggplant
Onion
Mozzarella cheese
Jar of spaghetti sauce
1 1/2 lbs. chopped meat
Parmesan cheese
Salt, pepper, and garlic salt
Cook meat to which chopped onion and salt and pepper and garlic salt is added. Drain and put aside. Peel eggplant and slice thin. Barely cover bottom of 9 x 13 inch pan with sauce. Add layer of eggplant, cheese, and meat (it is best to add all meat in this layer); repeat. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. (Takes this long because eggplant is not cooked before hand.)
Can be made low calorie by using skimmed milk cheese, low calorie spaghetti sauce, and substituting turkey for beef.
