Eggplant often gets neglected in my kitchen — without any obvious reason. But no more! This simple yet delicious dish proves that eggplant is truly the queen of the veggies. Thick slices of eggplant are brushed with olive oil, and seasoned with lemon pepper and salt: then freshly grated Parmesan is added in the middle of baking to produce a tasty, crispy, crusty surface you won’t be able to resist!

First of all, I want to thank Gladys — my dear friend and reader — for this wonderful recipe idea. She sent me an old Hard Boiled Eggs Gratin recipe that was found in a wooden trunk which had been hidden away in the corner of a dusty attic for generations.
I was immediately intrigued with egg gratin; it sounded like a perfect idea and looked gorgeous. Actually, I made several experiments when perfecting the recipe — you can read more about them in this post.
