Cook bacon until brown. Drain all but 1/4 c grease. Add onion and garlic and cook slowly until onion is clear.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add to skillet the eggplant, parsley, Italian seasoning and thyme. Cook about 5 minutes on very low heat. Add 1/2 c crumbs. Mix well and cook about 5 minutes more.
