    Hi Anonymous! A side salad, some roasted veggies, pasta, or tomato bruschetta would be great as a side dish for this. Here are a few side dish recipes from the Food on the Table site that would be great with this: BLT Salad: (http://www.foodonthetable.com/recipes/344650-blt-salad) OR Zesty Crouton Salad: (http://www.foodonthetable.com/recipes/344649-zesty-crouton-salad) OR Asparagus with Lemon-Mustard Vinaigrette: (http://www.foodonthetable.com/recipes/353696-asparagus-with-lemon-mustard-vinaigrette) OR Garlic Pasta: (http://www.foodonthetable.com/recipes/344629-garlic-pasta) OR Angel Hair Pasta With Mushrooms: (http://www.foodonthetable.com/recipes/346682-angel-hair-pasta-with-mushrooms).

    Yes, you can Tanya. One Egg White = 1 1/2 tsp Ener-G Egg Replacer plus 2 tbsp water (same as one egg)

    Best eggplant I've ever made! We enjoyed just dipping the slices in sauce as an appetizer.

    this recipe was so easy and more importantly-- it was DELICIOUS! I followed the recipe to the letter, served it with angel hair pasta, and sprinkled the finished product with parmesan cheese. YUM

    Deeeee-licious, my husband and 2 year old devoured it! I only added a bit of mozzarella over the top of the sauce before I returned it to the oven, and served it over angel hair pasta. Another keeper!

    I modified a bit but my eggplant came out too soft. Did I cook too long? I did not use eggwhites and I baked covered with the sauce. It was sooooo good.

    @Deanna- There are several things that could have affected the outcome of this dish. You could have over cooked it, or maybe cut the eggplant to thin. Also, cooking it the whole time in the sauce could have caused it to be too soft. If you make this again try adjusting these things. Another suggestion is to mix some Panko bread crumbs in with the Parmesan cheese to achieve a crispier texture.

    My husband is a big meat eater, usually pretty anti-veggie meals... and he LOVED this! He asked when I'll be making it again!
