Olive Garden Eggplant (Aubergine) Parmigiana image

I have never eaten this at the "Olive Garden" so I don't know if this is their recipe. However, this is a nice take on eggplant parmiagiana and it tastes great. Have made a few changes hopefully you will like it. Source: Kitchen Link (Copycat Collection) at kitchenlink.com.in 05/04/2001. The remaining eggplant slices can be frozen and used in the future.
