Ingredients

Directions

  5. Cover and heat to simmering.
  6. Place in an oiled shallow casserole (Corning is ideal).
  7. Sprinkle cheese over eggplant and place, covered, in a pre-heated oven (350F (177ðC).) for 20 minutes.
  8. Remove cover and bake an additional 10 minutes, until bubbly and golden
