To help prolong the life of your whole eggplant you can put it into a plastic bag and store it in the crisper. Try to choose an eggplant that doesn’t have any damage to the skin when you are in the grocery store.
Eggplant casserole can be stored in the refrigerator in containers. You can reheat it easily in the microwave so you have easy lunches or dinners for the rest of the week!
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Spray an 8×8 baking pan and a cookie sheet with non stick cooking spray and set aside.
Peel and slice lengthwise eggplant into thin slices (1/4 inch or smaller).
Place the eggplant slices on the prepared cookie sheet, lightly spray with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake for 15 minutes.
While the eggplant is baking, prepare the meat sauce.
