So, how did Thanksgiving go?

Boy, I went off of my diet! Fell asleep watching TV in the middle of the afternoon, too. This is what happens when I eat carbs, especially sweets.

Got right back on track the next day. Thanksgiving was a "planned cheat".

Here's a nice low-carb dish that's easy and a break from turkey leftovers:

EGGPLANT PARMESAN
1 pound eggplant
Salt
Oil
Garlic powder
6 tablespoons tomato sauce
3 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
Slice the eggplant into about 12-13 thin slices. Salt both sides of each piece and place in a colander, in the sink, for 30 minutes. Pat dry with a towel and arrange on a greased, foil-lined baking sheet. Brush with oil and broil for a few minutes per side until slightly browned, oiling the other side after flipping. Arrange 6 slices on the baking sheet; sprinkle with garlic powder and spread each with about 1/2 tablespoon of the tomato sauce. Top with a little mozzarella, then top each with another piece of eggplant. Repeat toppings and finish with a sprinkle of parmesan on each. Bake at 350º for about 10 minutes, until cheese is melted.
