I used regular mayonnaise and I never thought eggplant could taste this good! Nice and crisp on the outside, perfectly soft (not mushy) on the inside!! The only thing I would suggest is making sure the eggplant slices do not overlap each other.

EXCELLENT recipe! I am trying to lose a few pounds and this recipe will become a mainstay. I served it with marinara sauce and I didn't use the cooking spray since I just baked it on parchment paper (it didn't stick). Great non-greasy way to fix eggplant since eggplant tends to absorb SO much oil if you use ol...i just added a bunch of herbs to the bread crumbs and it was fantastic. Thanks for sharing!

Took a chance here because hubby HATES mayo...well, he loved it. Nobody tell him OK? I used the mayo really sparingly and might go with 1/3 cup next time. Relatively guilt free and very tasty. Next time I make Parmigiana, I'm going to do it this way. Thanks James!

Excellent!! My husband and I are big fried eggplant fans, but I was never big on the greasy overload from the excess oil the eggplant soaked up. These were great. I used Miracle Whip instead of mayo since I didn't have any fat free mayo on hand, and my husband and I agreed we really liked the tangy zip that the Miracle Whip added. I served them plain with a vegetable medley of sauteed fresh green beans, zuchinni, Vidalia onions, basil, garlic and olive oil as the side dish. The meal was excellent. Thanks for the post!!

We loved this! It's such a easy way to cook eggplant, and the coating was so good. I didn't have any bread crumbs, so I put some of my salad croutons in my blender,they were a garlic and herb blend, plus the grated parmesan..delicious, and the best part was no work. I put the slices on a foil lined cookie sheet,sprayed pam, and no clean up. We really like eggplant, but it is just too much work so many times. Now I will use this recipe and we can enjoy healthy eggplant more often, love that it isn't greasy fried mushy stuff! Thanks for sharing with us,James!

This is by far the best eggplant recipe I have ever tried. It came out of the oven crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside. I peeled my eggplant, personal preference. Loved that it was not oily or soggy. YUM, try this one kids!

A delicious and much healthier way to cook eggplant. The coating stayed on and was slightly crunchy. The eggplant was tender. I made these for a quick lunch and served with salad and dill pickle. Good stuff. Thanks.

Excellent recipe.They came out golden with just a nice crunch on the outside but, moist and tender inside.By the way the given nutri- tion facts reads only 2 on the weigh watcher's calculator, a must if one is trying to control or reduce is weight.

This is a great recipe for eggplant. The eggplant comes out of the oven crispy on the outside and crisp-tender on the inside. I did have to use shredded parmesan cheese (that is all I had), but it added to the overall "batter" taste. I think it made them crunchier. Anyway, it was an excellent dish, and I plan to use this recipe again. Thanks for posting.

This was great! I left off the parmesan and added some cornmeal to the bread crumbs for crunch. To serve, I topped each slice with a carmelized onion jam. Delicious!
