Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven’s broiler to high and arrange the sliced eggplants in a single layer on a baking sheet. Broil for about 6 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the slices are tender and golden brown.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté for about 5 minutes until soft.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the fat-free ricotta cheese, freshly chopped parsley, dried oregano, and the sautéed onion and garlic mixture. Stir well to create a creamy filling.
- Spread a generous amount of the ricotta mixture on the pale side of each eggplant slice, then roll them up tightly and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Cover the rolls with tomato basil marinara sauce, ensuring each is well coated. Sprinkle shredded cheese and grated Parmesan on top.
- Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes
For optimal results, taste the ricotta filling before stuffing the eggplants to adjust seasoning as necessary.
