Baked Eggplant Parmesan Stacks

Baked Parmesan Eggplant Stacks

My eggplant is finally starting to come into my garden.  Which means you’ll be seeing MANY more eggplant recipes here on the blog while our garden is cranking them out. I hope you like eggplant as much as I do. If not, don’t tell me because then I’d have to try and convince you what you’re missing out on and I’m stubborn and persistent and won’t let it go. Now you know.

Eggplant Parmesan is a classic. What’s not to love about eggplant, homemade tomato sauce, mozzarella and basil. Exactly. The traditional method can be a little heavy so we’ve taken the liberty of lightening it up a bit. Which means I can eat more. Win win. I think you’re going to go ga ga over these stacks.

Something else that I think you’ll go ga ga over are New West KnifeWorks knives. If you’ve been popping by our little place on the interwebs for any length of time you’ve seen them regularly in our photographs. They’re kind of hard to miss. Sexy doesn’t even begin to describe them. Yes knives can absolutely be sexy. From my very first New West KnifeWorks knife I was hooked. So much so, I gave away all the other knives I had before immediately.

Truth. At the moment I’m smitten with my Custom Santoku. She takes my breath away. Handmade from top to bottom. Not just a pretty face, she’ll cut through anything and everything. Very much a Games of Thrones knife if I’ve ever seen one.
