    The first time I made this dish, I was told "You can make this dish for me anytime!" This dish is even better warmed up the next day!

      Cooked a big dinner tonight, including your Lasagna. Amazing Terrie. Kind of like eggplant parmagiana baked into a lasanga. This was the hit of the night. Lots of seconds!

        We had this Friday night with friends. It was a big hit! We did add one layer of lasagna noodles on the bottom and crushed red pepper (I add it to everything).

              I think eggplant lasagna is more flavorful then pasta lasagna and is healthier. Love it!
