Pinterest Meal #1: Eggplant and Mozzarella Melt

Girls everywhere spend hours on Pinterest planning their dream DIY wedding. My wedding is already planned, and I don't have time to spend doing things myself. Therefore, I prefer to look at the food section, because I obviously love food. I have a board called future meals, and instead of dreaming of making one of those delectable meals, my roommate Julia and I actually made one.

Here is the website we got the meal from. Feel free to follow that, but we made a few changes.



What you will need:
1 eggplant
4 tomatoes
1 big loaf of french bread (not sliced)
fresh mozzarella
garlic salt
bread crumbs
2 eggs
salt and pepper

First pre-heat the oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, slice up the egg plant.
Mix the eggs, a little bit of salt and a little bit of pepper in a shallow bowl. Put 3/4 cup of breadcrumbs on a plate. Dredge the eggplant in the egg mix, then cover it in breadcrumbs and stick it on an oiled baking sheet. Bake for about 20-25 min.

While that is cooking, slice your bread in half, slice your mozzarella nice and thin, and slice up your tomatoes. Try not to cut yourself.

When the eggplant is finish, put everything together.
Here is the proper layering:
Bread
Tomato
Eggplant
Mozzarella
A little bit of garlic salt

Bake it all in the oven for about 7 minutes, or until the mozzarella is slightly golden brown.

Take it out and enjoy!

This meal feeds about 4 people, or maybe 2 really hungry people. But I mean REALLY hungry.
