3. Grill the eggplant slices on a baking sheet in batches until they are browned on both sides. This step adds a smoky flavor and a great texture to the casserole. Once grilled, set them aside.

GRILL

4. Grease a baking dish lightly to prevent sticking. Start layering your casserole with the grilled eggplant slices, then add a layer of marinara sauce, followed by a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layers in the casserole dish until all your ingredients are used up, finishing with a layer of sauce and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top.
