Pantry Meals
In the midst of COVID-19 and the stay-at-home order, meals can be a little harder to plan. Grocery stores are working hard to keep the shelves stocked but that doesn’t mean you will find every item on your list.

Eggplant Parmesan
Eggplant Parmesan is a classic Italian dish with layers of breaded eggplant, tomato sauce, and mozzarella cheese, and is the perfect dish for Meatless Monday’s.

Bread the eggplant by dipping in the egg/butter mixture and then coating in the breadcrumb/Parmesan mixture. Place on the wire rack. Repeat this step until you have enough eggplant to make 2 layers in a baking dish. The size of the eggplant will vary. If you … Continue reading
