Eggplant Main Course - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb. lean ground beef
1 large onion
1 carrot
1 green pepper
1 stalk celery
1/2 lb. mushrooms
1 medium eggplant
1/2 jar spaghetti sauce
Italian seasoning
Mozzarella cheese
grated cheese

Preparation

Saute ground beef until it is nearly cooked.
Slice veggies except for eggplant.
If eggplant is tender and fresh, leave skin on and cut in cubes.
(If not, peel it.)
Spray a casserole dish with Pam.
Combine veggies, meat, Italian seasoning and some of the grated cheese; pour into casserole dish.
Do not add Mozzarella yet.
When your casserole is cooked, 350\u00b0 for about 1 to 1 1/4 hours, sprinkle with grated cheese and top with Mozzarella.
The heat from the food will melt the cheese, also good without meat sauce.
