Who doesnt love an ooey-gooey Italian dish?
From classics likelasagnatopizza, you cant go wrong with a cheesy dinner.
But if youre watching your carb intake, you might shy away from pasta dishes.
Enter: Eggplant Parmesan.
This baked rendition is fuss-free, low in carbs, and totally hits the spot (sans breadcrumbs!
), says Bauer in her post.
Drizzle the eggplant with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Roast in the oven, flesh-side up, until the eggplant is fork-tender and juicy.
Remove from the oven and top with marinara sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
you could also sprinkle on some crushed red pepper for a little kick of heat if you want.
If you want to add another layer of flavor, feel free to sprinkle some breadcrumbs over the cheese.
We recommend using whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs for the best crunch.
In fact, eggplant is actually an anti-inflammatory food, thanks to phytochemicals like lycopene and beta carotene.
