You see this sad looking eggplant below, that was 1/2 off at the coop? It became dinner.
I was inspired to make this eggplant-as-noodles lasagna. It has tofu almond ricotta, basil marinara, kale, fresh basil and some teese on top, what the hell. I'd never done a noode-less lasagna before and the experiment was exciting.
I made a small one, in a loaf pan, with circular cuts of eggplant for easy slicing.
Here it is pre-baked.

Sliced! Not the prettiest thing, but it was sure delicious. Even the anti-eggplant person in the apartment enjoyed it.

Peanut-butter waffles?? Eggplant Lasagna (looks pretty to me!)?? Did you save any leftovers?? ;0)
peanut butter...waffles?
I can't keep my eyes off of those!
I hate eggplant, but that lasagna could possibly change my mind. I love that you cooked it in a loaf pan. You're so clever!
Also, thanks for putting a link to my blog on your list! That makes me feel special. <3
I want to make those waffles! Also, that lasagna sounds awesome!
So do you make a whole batch of waffles and then freeze them for re-toasting later? If so, that's a great idea. I live alone and always end up with a ton of waffle batter.
HAHA. THE anti-eggplant person.
I went to Grocery Outlet to get some of that Jason toothpaste (two boxes!) and a few other natural products and saw a big AXE set with rubber ducky. Why didn't you pick that up, too? :)
noodle-less lasagnas are delicious! sometimes when i'm drowning in zucchini from the garden i made noodle-less lasagna, but i haven't tried eggplant yet. i think i first had one when i was 12 or so (it was vegetarian, but not vegan), and i always liked the idea. especially since cooked lasagna noodles can get awful sticky. also, you keep tempting me to get teese!
Peanut butter (waffles) and bacon sounds like a delicious combo. Yum.
I love eggplant so this idea is a winner for me!
Your "lasagna" looks fab. I'm not an eggplant lover by any stretch, but if I had to eat it I couldn't imagine a better way than that combo.
