- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Oil 2 baking sheets and a 9x13-inch baking dish with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
- Whisk eggs and water together in a shallow dish. Combine Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, salt, and ground black pepper in a separate shallow dish.
- Dip eggplant slices into egg mixture, then press each gently into bread crumb mixture. Gently tap off any excess crumbs. Arrange slices on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake eggplant slices in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Flip eggplant and bake an additional 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Slice eggplant about 1/4" thick, spray with non-stick spray.
- Place eggplant on a cookie sheet and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until nicely browned.
- This can be done ahead of time, like on the weekend, so this is a lot quicker for a weeknight meal.
- Spray an 8x8-inch baking dish with the non-stick spray and put a small amount of sauce in the bottom of it.
- Place a layer of eggplant on top of the sauce.
- Top the eggplant with the 2 kinds of mozzarella and sprinkle a little parmesan on top.
- Top with a little bit of sauce and continue layering until either the ingredients are used up or you run out of room in the pan (I usually get 3 layers in).
- Top off with the rest of the cheeses.
- Bake in a preheated oven 35-45 minutes or until cheeses are melted and sauce is bubbling.
- ENJOY!

LAMB, FETA AND EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) LASAGNA
This is well worth the effort to make, it's a fabulous dish! to save time the lamb sauce and the white sauce can me made up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated. The best canned tomatoes and sauce will make a difference to the meat sauce, so try and purchase a good quality product for this recipe and of coarse all recipes! If you are not a feta lover then substitute mozzarella cheese for the feta. The recipe states 12 lasagna noodles, I usually cook a couple more just in case a couple tear while boiling.
