Recipe Introduction
(Writer of recipe wrote this...)I halved the recipe (except for the garlic) to make an 8x8 pan, and I made two minor changes. I added 1/4 cup of light ricotta to the bottom layer (1 T. per quadrant of an 8x8 pan), which added one point per serving to the recipe (worth it), and I used about half of the oregano, which was plenty.
List of Ingredients
1/2 c. dry white wine
1 T. dried basil
1 T. dried oregano
4 (8 oz) cans no salt added tomato sauce
1 (28 oz) can no salt added whole tomatoes, undrained and chopped
1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 c. water
1/4 tsp. salt
3 large egg whites, lightly beaten
1 1/4 c. Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 c. grated parmesan cheese
2 eggplants (about 1 3/4 lbs)
cooking spray
3 c. (12 oz) pre-shredded part skim mozzarella cheeseRecipe
Combine first 7 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 20 minutes. Preheat broiler. Combine 1/4 c. water, salt, and egg whites in a shallow bowl. Combine breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese in shallow dish. Dip eggplant slices in egg white mixture, and dredge in breadcrumb mixture. Place half of eggplant on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; broil 5 minutes on each side or until browned. Repeat procedure with remaining eggplant. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350. Spread half of tomato mixture in a 13x9 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Arrange half of eggplant over tomato mixture; top with half of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers with remaining tomato mixture, eggplant, and cheese (it's a good idea to save a little tomato sauce for the top before you sprinkle the second half of mozzarella). Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until bubbly. Let stand 5-10 minutes before cutting. Yield: 8 servings.
