Ingredients

    2 teaspoons olive oil
    1 onion, chopped
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    11/2 cups cubed, unpeeled eggplant (cut into about 1/2-inch cubes)
    1 small zucchini, chopped (about 1 cup chopped)
    1 cup sliced mushrooms
    1/2 cup chopped green pepper
    4 ripe tomatoes, seeded and chopped
    2 teaspoons Italian seasoning or Herbes de Provence
    1/2 teaspoon sugar or Splenda
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    Freshly ground black pepper
    2 tablespoons minced fresh basil
    8 ounces multigrain pasta (about 2 cups uncooked)
    1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

    **OPTIONAL: 6 eggs (not in nutritionals)

Directions

Heat olive oil in 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic, and sauté until onion is translucent. Add eggplant, zucchini, mushrooms and green pepper.

Cook, stirring frequently, 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, Italian seasoning, sugar, salt and pepper. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 20 minutes.

**OPTIONAL (but very French!): during last 10 minutes, add 6 eggs on top of the mixture. Cook, covered, until eggs are done to your preference.

Remove eggs before going on to next steps. Serve eggs on top of mixture when done.

Uncover tomato mixture, stir in basil, increase heat to medium-high and allow to boil, uncovered, 3 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook pasta in unsalted water according to package directions; drain.

Place pasta in large serving bowl and top with tomato mixture; toss together.

Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

    When you add eggs, it's another recipe called Pipérade.
    I have never eaten Ratatouille with pasta, only with rice.
    If you want to make it "à la française", don't add sugar and mushrooms in it.

    I made a variation of this for lunch today...added chickpeas (garbonzo beans) for a little more protein. Ratatouille is one of my all time favorites! - 4/27/08

    Great! I put mine all in the crockpot , 1 hr on high, and then low for ~ 5 hrs. Didn't measure anything with referance to veggies but peeled the eggplant. Used drained can tomatoes 14 oz. Ate like a hearty stew with crusted bread. No pasta or eggs but might try that variation, too. - 11/12/07
