I attended a dinner last week and had Eggplant Parmesan for the first time in my life. Can I say that I am in love! How did I not know about this all my life? So… much to my husbands dismay I will be trying my hand at making my own. Big C will hate this for sure! Hope this recipe is as good as the one I had last week. Enjoy to all and hope we can incorporate this vegetarian meal into our lives. Thanks to Allrecipes.com for this weeks recipe.
