Cooking spray

8 slices eggplant, 1/4 inch thick

1 egg white

1 T. water

2 c. bread crumbs, dry

1 t. Italian seasoning

1 tomato, medium, chopped

1/4 c. parmesan cheese, grated

1/4 c. Italian dressing, fat free


Preheat oven to 375F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.  In a small bowl, whisk egg white and water.  In another bowl mix breadcrumbs and Italian seasoning. Dip the eggplant slices one at a time into the egg and water mixture, then coat both sides with breadcrumbs..  When the eggplant is coated, place each slice on the baking sheet. Top each slice with equal amounts of tomato, parmesan cheese and dressing. Bake in the oven about 15 minutes.  Change the oven setting to broil and cook for 3 minutes.  Check slices while broiling to avoid burning.
