[2 SP per serving] I love eggplant, although I am the only one in the family who does, and this recipe is a fantastic way to showcase it! This delectable pie has it all, breadcrumbs, cheese, eggplant, and tomatoes. Even though this is very close to a vegetarian recipe, it is filling. Go ahead and eat half the pie, that would only be 6 points!

Notes
The original recipe called for butter instead of margarine. This would increase the points to 4 SP per serving. Also, several of the measures for the ingredients were missing, I have added them.
