Vegetarian Night - What a Surprise

My fifteen year old daughter recently showed a interest in a vegetarian diet. Not totally vegetarian, but wanted me to include some meatless dishes for dinner. Last night I prepared Eggplant Parmagian with Tomato Sauce and Angel Hair Pasta. The tomato sauce was well seasoned. The eggplant was nicely browned and mildy cruchy on the outside, but very mushy on the inside. I wonder how to keep them firm. I will find out and let you know. Pictures to come.
