11/2 small onion, minced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
4 ounces mozzarella cheese, cut into small dice
1 cup tomato sauce, preferably homemade
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat the oven to 375F.

shallow baking dish. Bake until just tender when pierced with a fork,
but not collapsed, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the baking dish from the
oven and let the eggplants cool slightly.
Increase the oven temperature to 400F. Lightly oil a baking sheet.
Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise. Cut out the flesh in two or three
pieces, leaving a 1/4-inch shell. Cut the eggplant flesh into large dice.
In a medium-size bowl, toss the diced eggplant with the onion, oregano
and mozzarella. Pile the mixture into the scooped-out shells. Spoon the
tomato sauce over the stuffed eggplants.

them with the Parmesan. Bake until golden and bubbling hot, 30 to 40
minutes. Serve this easy eggplant recipes very hot.
