(Courtesy of everydaydiabeticrecipes.com)

Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 Tbsp. water
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 1/4 c. Italian-flavored bread crumbs
1 large eggplant, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch rounds
Nonstick cooking spray
2 c. light spaghetti sauce
1/2 c. (2 oz.) shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a shallow bowl, beat the egg with water and pepper.  Place the bread crumbs in another shallow dish.  Line 2 large baking sheets with aluminum foil and coat generously with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.

Dip each eggplant round in the egg mixture, then in the bread crumbs, coating completely.  Place on the baking sheets in a single layer, then spray the tops with nonstick cooking spray.  Bake for 15 minutes, then turn the slices over and spray the other side with nonstick cooking spray; bake for 15 more minutes.

Remove from the oven and place about 1 Tbsp. spaghetti sauce on each.  Sprinkle evenly with mozzarella cheese and return to the oven for 4-5 more minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is melted.
