Gluten Free Eggplant Parmesan

Gluten Free Eggplant Parmesan

Gluten Free Eggplant Parmesan is low carb and gluten free! It is easy to put together and delicious too! It is a great side dish!

The eggplant is coming on in the garden! Oh boy! It is the perfect time of year to make lots of Gluten Free Eggplant Parmesan.

I grow the long, slender eggplants because they are just easier to cut and cook with but the big ole purple ones you get in the store work just fine too. They just may take a bit longer to cook because they are bigger. Either way, you will end up with flavorful, saucy, cheesy eggplant.

If you do not need to be gluten free, you can substitute the breading mix with regular bread crumbs.

I use my homemade spaghetti sauce so I am sure it is also gluten free and low carb. (PS; it is delicious too!) (AND it is easy to make a lot and freeze for later! :))
