Title: EGGPLANT ROMA
Categories: Vegetables, Deal-a-meal, Sparkie
Yield: 1 servings

4 ts Olive oil
1 lg Clove garlic, minced
1/2 c Chopped onion
2 c Peeled, cubed eggplant
1 1/2 c Peeled, seeded, chopped
Tomatoes
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 ts Balsamic vinegar
1/4 c Chopped, fresh basil or
1-1/2 ts dried basil
4 ts Toasted sesame seeds

1. In medium skillet, heat olive oil, and saute
garlic and onion until
onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

2. Stir in eggplant and tomato. Sprinkle with salt
and pepper.

3. Cover and cook over low heat until eggplant is
tender, about 10
minutes.

4. Stir in vinegar and basil.

5. Cook uncovered 5 minutes longer, stirring
occasionally.

6. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

NOTE: 1 teaspoon sesame seeds = 15 calories (1 joker).

If you can't find balsamic vinegar, (I hope you can
because it is delicious), try malt vinegar or red wine
vinegar, or natural rice vinegar.
Be adventurous. There are lots of vinegars out
there.

Know your vegetables. Choose an eggplant that has a
smooth, glossy surface. Avoid an eggplant that is
dull looking and/or soft.
