This irresistible cheesy eggplant bake recipe is one of my favorite keto and low carb vegetarian meals. Packed with hearty vegetables: eggplant, spinach, and tomatoes, its great to make ahead or meal prep! Great as a side dish or a vegetarian keto dinner.
Slice eggplant into 1/2 inch slices, and place on baking sheet. Pour the 2 tablespoons olive oil and salt and pepper over the eggplant, and toss to coat. Bake for 20 minutes until eggplant is soft, flipping halfway through.
In a 9x9 glass baking dish, layer the tomato sauce, eggplant, fresh mozzarella cheese, and spinach into 2 or 3 layers. Top with shredded parmesan cheese.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, until cheese becomes bubbly.
