1 ½ tsp dried oregano leaves

½ tsp salt

1 cup onion cut into ¾” pieces

2 cups fine, dry bread crumbs

2 tbsp dried parsley flakes

3 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

1 tsp dry Italian dressing mix

While sauce simmers, peel eggplant, remove ends, and slice lengthwise into 1/3” thick slices.

Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease baking pan large enough to hold eggplant in a single layer.
