Christy's Baked Eggplant "Parmesan"

Ingredients: 1 eggplant bread crumbs or crushed Ritz crackers (this was really good) or Panko italian seasoning 1 lb ground turkey (optional) mozzarella cheese spaghetti spaghetti sauce Preparation: Preheat oven to 415 deg. Cut up eggplant into small pieces or thin slices. Spray or grease 9x13 pan. Throw eggplant in pan with some bread crumbs and italian seasoning (sorry, I don't measure). Put it in the oven for about 30 minutes and stir it every once in a while, until it is brown and the eggplant is kind of dried out. While that is cooking, start boiling water for the spaghetti, brown the ground turkey, and grate the cheese. When the eggplant is done, mix it all together or make layers. Put some cheese on top. Turn the oven temp down to 350 deg and cook for about 30 minutes until the cheese is melted. You can put some Parmesan cheese on top.
