Trying to get the family to eat less processed food is a challenge. I constantly hear, "Can you buy more snacks?" Which translates to a bag of something they can rip open and consume in a single sitting, even though it says a serving for 8 on the package. This is a good healthy snack that easy to make and put out before dinner or as an anytime snack. They won't be as crispy as a chip, but I enjoy the texture.
1 thin eggplant (try to find Japanese), sliced into strips
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/8 cup grated Romano cheese (eliminate for vegan)
1 clove garlic, grated
2 sprigs fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat oven to 375. Cut eggplant into I/2 inch slices. In a small bowl combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic, parsley, oregano, salt and pepper. Dredge the eggplant slices into the mixture to coat. Lay slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with oil. Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
