This was frugal for me because I grew the carrots and eggplant. I got the tomato sauce for free with coupons, and had the other ingredients. It was healthy and tasty, and I will vary the cheeses and sauces I use depending on what's available. I may try it with just flavored bread crumbs.
Starting with the eggplant, cut into 1/4-in slices. Place plate and sprinkle with salt. Set aside for 15 minutes.
