Ingredients

  • 1 unpeeled eggplant
  • 6 leaves leave basil
  • 4 oz nonfat mozzarella cheese slices
  • 1 medium whole tomato, sliced
  • 2 tbsps olive oil
  • 1 second olive oil cooking spray

Directions

  • Slice eggplant to about 1/4" thickness. Sprinkle both sides with salt and let sit and drain in a colander or lay out on paper towels (to pull the moisture to the top which you can then dab off, otherwise you will end up with a soggy dish).
  • Spray bottom of a baking dish with non-stick spray and place the eggplant in the dish, sides touching.
  • Place a slice of the tomato on top of each slice of eggplant.
  • Shred the basil and spread evenly across the tops.
  • Drizzle olive oil evenly over all the slices and then sprinkle the mozzarella (more or less to taste) across the slices.
  • bake at 350 °F (150 °C) until edges or cheese are slightly brown, about 20 minutes.
  • Note: a great way to get in some of those much needed and often neglected vegetables. The light and zesty flavor is summery and refreshing in the winter.
