Pour remaining pasta sauce over eggplant rolls and top with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.   6 Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.     I left out the flour and substituted 1/2 C. atkins bake mix!  7 Carbs per roll for us we used tomato sauce with 5 carbs a serving- we only ended up using 1 1/2 eggplant and we made twelve rolls.
