Toasted Beef Ravioli Layered Eggplant Parmesan
This dish is a twist on eggplant parmesan, but instead of breading the eggplant, breaded beef ravioli are layered between broiled eggplant slices. With meaty ravioli, ooey-gooey cheese and tender eggplant, this complete entrée with the pasta included is a winning take on an Italian classic.
