JULIA CHILD’S EGGPLANT PIZZA BITES

Mini eggplant pizza bites are a popular Julia Child recipe and one of my favorite easy vegetarian dinners.

WHAT’S In JULIA CHILD’S EGGPLANT PIZZA BITES :

– 1 large globe eggplant – 1 teaspoon salt – 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil – 1/3 cup Parmsan cheese – 1/3 cup Mozzarella cheese

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 375°F/190°C.

1:

Cut the ends off the eggplant and discard. Cut the eggplant crosswise into ¾" rounds.

2:

 Sprinkle the salt over both sides of the eggplant slices and arrange on a paper towel. Let the eggplant sit for 30 minutes to draw out some of the water.

3:

Meanwhile, make the sauce. Heat the oil in a large skillet over low heat. Add the garlic and saute for a minute or two, taking care not to let it burn.

4:

Add the tomatoes, oregano, and Italian seasoning. Let simmer, adding a little water if needed.
