Happy New Year Nomsters!!

How fast has time flown that it has been nearly two months since my last post? I blame my being uber busy with uni and then flying off to Malaysia for three weeks.
Fret not as I have spent a lot of time eating (my waist line attests to that) so I have a lot of future blog posts planned.

One of my new year resolutions is to eat a bit more healthy. Most of you won't know that I have an irrational fear of vegetables entering my mouth and belly. I am really picky of the kinds of vegetables I eat and how they are cooked and I always have been.

The first meal that I cooked when I got home was eggplant parmagiana. I got this idea from my housemate who is vegetarian and since I had two eggplants that I had purchased on my mission to be healthy, I thought, why the heck not?

Double decker eggplant parmas

Basically, I just made this up as I went along. 
Step 1: Slice and crumb your eggplant.
Step 2: Fry them until golden brown
Step 3: Make your napoli sauce to go on top of the parmas
Step 4: Stack your eggplants however you like. You can put other things in between the layers, I just put more sauce because I had heaps. Top it off with some mushrooms and cheese.
Step 5: Put it in the oven just long enough for the cheese to melt and then voila!

It was a pretty delicious meal. I'm kidding myself to say it's the healthiest meal I could have made with an eggplant, but hey, it's a start. 
Let me know if you try it and your results.

Peace, love and nomnoms,
Jo
