Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Prepare three bowls, the first with the flour mixed with 1/2 tsp salt, the second with the egg whites mixed with the skim milk, and the third with bread crumbs mixed with remaining 1/2 tsp salt, oregano, and pepper.

Dredge eggplant slices in flour, then egg and milk mixture, and then bread crumb mixture.

Make a layer of coated slices in a casserole dish and sprinkle with 1 cup tomato sauce and 1/4 cup parmesan cheese.

Make another layer of slices on the first layer, staggering slices so they don't completely overlap lower slices.
