~ Ratatouille with Penne ~ | |
Ratatouille 2 Tbsp. olive oil 1 large onion, chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 3 cups eggplant, chopped 3 cups zucchini, chopped 3 tomatoes, chopped 1/2 cup parsley, chopped 1 cup water Salt and pepper 1 pound penne pasta 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated Heat olive oil in large pot. Cook onion and garlic in olive oil until tender. Add eggplant and simmer for 10 minutes. Add zucchini, tomatoes, parsley and about 1 cup of water.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Simmer on low/medium heat for about 30 minutes until vegetables are tender, stirring frequently. You may need to add just a little more water as the dish cooks down.
Meanwhile cook pasta according to package directions until just al dente. Drain pasta and spoon into bowls. Spoon ratatouille over pasta and sprinkle on cheese. **The Skinny: You really cannot get much more healthful than this. As an alternative method of cooking, you could add low fat chicken broth instead of water to get a different taste.
