This eggplant casserole is wonderful, I love using squash, zucchini, eggplant in my recipes.
I made this dish yesterday and we loved it. I added sone zucchini since a had a small eggplant. I cut the cheese in half and it was plenty. Will make this again
Can I make this without egg?
Yes, you can skip the egg. Hope you get a chance to make this!
Didn’t realize I didn’t have any broccoli – made it anyway – delish – didn’t miss the broccoli at all! Really love the salty olives with the tomato and eggplant. I was skeptical about adding cheese, but this turned out to be something I’ll make regularly.
