(Serves Four)
2 medium eggplants
1 large ball of Mozzarella
2 cups tomato sauce or freshly diced tomato
Trim ends of eggplant and discard.
Cut length-wise in 1/2 inch wide slices.
Lightly brush each side with olive oil, season with ground pepper and place on a baking sheet.
Bake in a 375 degree oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping slices over after 10 minutes.
Slice mozzarella and evenly distribute over baked eggplant.
Spoon sauce as desired over uncovered areas of eggplant and serve remaining sauce on the side.
Place under a broiler until mozzarella is lightly golden, 2-3 minutes.
