VegeNation

While eggplant parmigiana is a popular vegetarian dish, VegeNation’s eggplant stack takes it a step further, to fully vegan. It’s accomplished without sacrificing flavor by layering the eggplant with house-made cashew ricotta cheese and topping it with melted vegan mozzarella and New York-style tomato gravy, $13.
