Fun question: What was your first gig and what did you serve?

Okay nofifi, if you're going to be brave, at least let me give you the recipe. Here goes...

Breaded eggplant as if for parmesan sauted until crispy

1 pkg silken tofu mixed with basil, rosemary, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper- you can add some parmesan, romano, or asiago cheese since I don't suppose you're a vegan

thin, long julienne strips of carrot and zucchini (the green part)

your favorite light tomato sauce

Stack as follows: eggplant, tofu mixture, veggies to hang out the sides- more for looks than anything else. Repeat. End with eggplant and a spoon of sauce and shredded parm on top. Bake until hot. Enjoy. Next time use your ricotta mixed with an egg.

Hey Lentil, that really doesn't sound half bad. I like the carrot and zucchini idea too. I am too lazy to go to the store on my day off but will make it this weekend and let you know. I love eggplant with anything anyway. Thanks for taking the time to write down this recipe for me. Who knows, I may just convert to that TUFU stuff, lol.
