    this is not the first time I've made this super easy and delicious eggplant. this recipe is easy to make your own. I added a slice of tomato to each eggplant slice used provolone and white cheddar and parmesan. then I baked it to melt the cheese and put bacon on top. yummy

    This was just delish! What a great idea. I didn't bread mine as others did, and after sautéing the eggplant, I put it in a tart dish, covered with sautéed garlic and red onions and baked at 350 for about 20mins, then covered with extra sharp cheddar, popped it back in the oven until the - Read more ...

    This is an excellent recipe. The only thing I did differently was to peel the eggplant.( My husband says the skin tastes bitter.)Fast easy & delicious. What more could I ask for? Thanks for sharing.

    I made this as a side dish, but it could easily be a main course. It was so delicious! I used this recipe as a base and followed the suggestions of other reviewers. These were my changes: I seasoned the eggplant with salt, pepper, and granulated garlic. I topped with the onions, then parmesan cheese. - Read more ...

    Loved it. I went with less oil though I dunked the eggplant slices quickly in Greek dressing and sprinkled some breadcrumbs mixed with oil on top. Shook some garlic powder on top. I served it with leftover rice (fried) and my hubby scraped the bottom of the eggplant dish. Very nice and as an extra - Read more ...

    This was delicious. My family, who are not eggplant lovers ate every last scrap. I did make some changes. I seasoned the eggplant with garlic, salt and pepper while frying in extra virgin olive oil, then removed to a cookie sheet and topped with flavored bread crumb, onion, a slice of tomato and cheese. I - Read more ...

    don't use too much oil - the cheese makes it pretty greasy; don't cook for too long - hard to eat if too soft

    My family really enjoyed this recipe. I made a few changes: I sliced the eggplant a little thinner and sauted it and the onions in olive oil instead of vegetable oil. To add a little more flavor I sprinkled garlic powder on top. Instead of finishing it in the pan I placed it on toast - Read more ...

    Delicious!!! Very easy and great. I made this recipe healthy by not frying the eggplant and onions but just sauteing them in PAM. Another thing I did to make this healthier was I put fat-free cheese instead of regular cheese. Thanks for the great recipe!

    This is a good recipe for something quick and easy to do with eggplant. The flavor was good but seemed to be missing something.
