1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3/4 cup PageLink(Atkins Bread Crumbs)
1. Heat oven to 375°F. Peel eggplant and slice lengthwise
into 1/2" thick slices. Sprinkle with salt and place in a
colander for 15 minutes to drain.
2. In a saucepan melt butter over medium heat. Add onion
and garlic; cook 3-4 minutes until softened. Mix in
nutmeg and cream; cook 1 minute.
3. Rinse eggplant slices and pat dry. Arrange slices in 9" x
13" baking dish. Pour cream mixture over eggplant.
Sprinkle evenly with breadcrumbs.
4. Bake 45 minutes until the cream is thickened, browned
and bubbly and the eggplant is tender.
For best flavor, dont skip step 1 - salting the eggplant eliminates
bitterness. The recipe can be halved easily. Atkins - Eggplant Gratin
