1 large onion, chopped3-4 garlic cloves mashed, chopped10-15 turkey pepperoni slices, chopped1 tablespoon of olive oil2 medium eggplants3-4 zucchini1 contaier of sliced mushrooms, any type1 can of tomato puree (or crushed, my preference is puree)1 small can of tomato pastespices: salt and pepper, oregano, parsley, basil, cayenne, garlic powder, thyme, a little sugar to balance the tomato acidity, and anything else you'd like.
Directions
In a large pot, sautee the onion, garlic, turkey pepperoni and olive oil over medium heat until onions are translucent. Peel and cube the eggplant, and add to onion mix and stir. Slice zucchini and add to pot along with the mushrooms. Let it all simmer for about 20-25 minutes then drain excess liquid. Add the tomato puree and paste and all the spices, stir and continue to simmer on low flame for about an hour and a half to let the flavors blend, stirring occasionally. Delicious plain at any temperature, or with chicken over pasta with grated cheese. A staple in my house.
