Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggplants, thinly sliced lengthwise
  • 1 pound ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Arrange eggplant slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 15 minutes to draw out moisture. Pat dry with paper towels.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, parsley, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  5. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture onto each eggplant slice.
  6. Roll up each eggplant slice and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
  7. Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the eggplant rolls.
  8. Top with mozzarella slices and the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the eggplant is tender.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the ricotta mixture.
  • If you don’t have fresh mozzarella, shredded mozzarella will also work.
  • Serve with a side salad and crusty bread for a complete meal.
