How Do You Freeze Eggplant Parmigiana?
Eggplant parmigiana is a rich combination of fried eggplant and tomato sauce, along with Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses. Cooking it can be a time-consuming process because it requires an extensive amount of preparation: slicing and frying the eggplant, making the tomato sauce and assembling all the ingredients, in addition to its baking time. Freezing eggplant parmigiana can be a time saver because you can assemble the unbaked dish at one time, but heat it at a future time. You can also make two dishes at once: one to eat now and one to freeze. Prepare your eggplant parmigiana as usual up through the assembling stage in a 9-inch-by-13-inch glass baking dish, but do not bake it. Let the eggplant parmigiana sit until all the fried eggplant and warm tomato sauce cool down to room temperature. Cover the cooled eggplant parmigiana tightly with plastic wrap. Make sure the plastic wrap is secured around the sides of the baking dish so no air is trapped inside. Wrap the top of the baking dish
