Baked Eggplant Parmesan

Eggplant Parmesan is an Italian classic that you need in your life. The melty cheese and crispy coating are pure comfort food perfection. I love this baked recipe because you get all the crisp texture and amazing flavor of regular eggplant parm without the frying process.

• 1 cup bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese , (divided)
