• 0.5 cup parmesan cheese
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Slice the eggplant and tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Set aside.

Step 3

In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, dried oregano, melted butter, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to form the topping.

Step 5

Lightly grease a baking dish with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Arrange the eggplant and tomato slices in an alternating pattern (like a spiral or rows) in the dish.

Step 6

Drizzle the sautéed garlic and olive oil mixture over the arranged slices, ensuring even coverage.

Step 7

Evenly sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the vegetables.

Step 8

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven.

Step 9

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the topping is golden and crispy.
