1/2 cup chopped onion
1 garlic clove
1/2 lb ground turkey
1 (2 lb) can Italian tomatoes
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
In pie plate, combine eggs and 1 TBSP water. In another pie plate, place bread crumbs. Dip eggplant in egg mixture coating well. Dip into bread crumbs. Place on greased (I use olive oil spray) baking sheet. Bake eggplant for 20 minutes, turn once.
In large skillet w/ olive oil, saute onion, garlic, and turkey meat for about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and sugar. Bring to boil. Stir with wooden spoon.
Reduce heat, simmer, covered and stirring occasionally for 45 minutes.
Arrange half of eggplant slices in bottom of baking dish.
Cover bottom of baking dish with some of the sauce. Arrange the eggplant so it covers bottom of baking dish. Sprinkle cheese and pour sauce so it covers a thin layer over eggplant. Arrange the rest of the eggplant and repeat those steps. The top layer should be the mozzarella cheese.
Bake, uncovered 25 minutes.
