Eggplant And Tomato Sauce

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This simple Eggplant and Tomato Sauce is delicious, made with diced eggplant stewed in tomatoes and garlic. I love it served over pasta but its also great over zucchini noodles, polenta or as a side dish on its own.

    Eggplants, also known as aubergines, belong to the nightshade family of plants and are used in many Italian dishes. They are nutrient dense and high in antioxidants. Its actually a fruit, and great in so many vegetarian dishes like these meatless Eggplant Meatballs, Eggplant Parmesan and Eggplant Rollatini.,Alt=,Years ago when I worked in Astoria NY in my first job as a graphic designer, we always ordered lunch from a great little Italian restaurant that made the best pasta with tomatoes and eggplant. It was like a marinara sauce, only better because it had little tender pieces of eggplant. Even then used to go home and recreate my favorite dishes.,Use this sauce in place of marinara sauce to make baked ziti, it comes out delicious!,If youre not a fan of the skin, you can peel it before cooking.,Serve it over pasta, zucchini noodles or eat it as a side dish.,Eggplant Rollatini with Spinach,Eggplant Meatballs,Stuffed Eggplant Parmesan,Baked Eggplant Sticks
