Ingredients

1 whole eggplant chopped2 cans diced tomatoes1 small can tomato sauce1 small can chopped olives (or whole for chunky look)3 cloves garlic (or more)1Tbtsp. Italian herbs1 tsp. salt

Directions

Dice Eggplant and put in large pot with lid. Add can of chopped black olives (tiny can), two cans diced tomatoes, one can plain tomato sauce, generous Italian spices, garlic (chopped or smashed) and tsp. salt. Let simmer on low for about 45 minutes covered. This will be very dry at first. Don't add water or oil. The eggplant will give off lots of water to make sauce. Serve plain or over whole wheat pasta. Also good on pizza. If you like a chunkier look, use whole olives instead of chopped.
