Laura my best man at our wedding married a woman from Naples. She came over after the war. Ayway I am sure I had this at her home. It was a pleasure to go there for dinner. Any way my buddy got close to 250 lbs and had to diet. Well I am 76 and my friends have all pasted on. You remind me of her so I try to use rescipes from your site . I am a widower . We were all from Chicago. The hard part is there are so many good memories. Thank you and I pray your husband did not grow like my friend. God Bless you

Laura I still love this recipe to this day! I'm Calabrese and this is how we make it too! Sei meravigliosa!

I made this recipe last night for dinner. This is different than how I make my eggplant parm...yes, I'm one of those "breadcrumb" users :) I had some homemade meat sauce in the freezer and two beautiful eggplants in frig. This is a much easier way to make this wonderful Italian dish. I thought I would miss the crunchiness of the breadcrumbs but the truth is this recipe is much less oily. It had a lighter, fresher taste. My husband could not stop eating it. It was really delicious or should I say "delizioso"! Thanks Laura

Made this last night for my mom's birthday dinner. Came out great, everyone loved it! Will make again. Thanks

I literally just made this today for the first time. It turned out great! My 12-year-old son even loves it. And I definitely agree with Laura always use a good cheese. 🌷

This is terrific! So rich and delicious. And it's exactly how my Mamma makes it, the way she learned from her Italian neighbor many many years ago.

Wow. Seems as though everyone is giving Laura a lot of flack for the allegedly unauthentic recipe in this video. I have no intention of arguing about authenticity. I will point out however, I bet every last one of us grew up with at least one or more recipes we had as kids that we remember being the real deal and anything else wasn't "authentic". Could we perhaps give her the benefit of the doubt and understand things from her perspective?

I made it for my parents, and we all loved it! Thanks Laura❤

i am american/italian and french? italian for sure...you have inspired my love of italian cuizine further, because you seem the real deal like my mothers family. i discovered you through my girlfriend and you make me want to cook! youre great!

Oh my goodness. It's authentic to her family you guys cut her some slack she's doing a good job. HATERS GONNA HATE. You go Laura ;).

So simple. Why did I never learn this before!!!! Thanks Laura, you're the greatest!

Made it yesterday, it turned out great. I used non-meat sauce from a jar, so I didn't follow it to the letter. But they came out perfect.
