Layer half of the eggplant slices over the base of a 2 litre ovenproof dish. Scatter the Wattie's frozen Free-flow Spinach over and pour over the Wattie's Tomatoes with Roasted Garlic and Onion. Sprinkle over half of the cheese and top with the remaining eggplant slices. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs, remaining cheese and Parmesan cheese.
