1 medium eggplant
2 eggs beaten
1/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1 cup H-E-B fat-free part skim mozzarella cheese
2 cups of zero point marinara sauce
Olive Oil Spray
Low-Fat Parmesan Cheese approx. 5 tablespoons
Instructions
Preheat your Ninja Foodi or Air Fryer for 3- 5 minutes. Spray your crisper basket with Olive Oil Spray.
Peel and slice the eggplant into 1/4″ slices.
Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow dish
In a small bowl, scramble the egg.
Gently dip the eggplant slices into the egg mixture. Then dip into the breadcrumbs and coat both sides.
You can use your fingers to press the breadcrumbs down, so they stick better.
Place eggplant in a single layer into your basket. Spray the tops of the slices with olive oil spray. Close the crisping lid. Select AIR CRISP, set temp to 400 degrees, set the time to 12 minutes.
After 8 minutes, flip your eggplant slices and spray the tops with olive oil. (Be careful when flipping not to touch the edges of your crisper basket, it will be HOT)
Spray the tops of your eggplant and cook the remaining 4 minutes.
Spoon a tablespoon of spaghetti sauce over the top of your eggplant and spread to cover.
Lay a slice of low-fat mozzarella cheese on top.
Sprinkle with low fat parmesan cheese (about 1/2 a tablespoon per slice)
Close the crisping lid. Select BROIL
Press Start Broil (2-4 min) until your mozzarella cheese looks melted.
Serve over zoodles with a little extra sauce.
