Hi there y'all and happy Friday!! Hope you've had a good week. Today I'm bringing you my recipe for Eggplant Parmesan with homemade sauce from scratch. Nothing like homemade, so yummy. You can certainly use sauce from a jar (I don't always scratch make my sauce) but do give scratch made a try sometime. Enjoy 😊


1 large eggplant
1/2 -3/4 tsp each of salt and black pepper
2 Tbsp olive oil
7-10 tomatoes (I mixed Roma/plum and Vine)
1 large red bell pepper
1 large onion
5 cloves of garlic (use more if you like)
1-2 Tbsp olive oil
Red pepper flakes or ground (to taste)
Season all (to taste)
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp thyme
Fresh basil leaves
Fresh mozzarella slices
Grated Parmesan
