Ratatouille-ish

Still looking for a way to use that eggplant and/or zucchini? Here's a great dish. I'm not sure it's the real ratatouille, but it's close enough.

1 eggplant
1 zucchini
1 onion
1 bell pepper (red was super yummy)
mushrooms
olive oil
2-3 cloves of garlic
1/2-1 C. white wine
1 lb. sausage (whatever you have--italian, breakfast, etc.)
1 lb. fun pasta. Bowties worked for me.

Pour a tablespoon or two of oil on a cookie sheet. Chop up the vegetables into bite-size cubes, rub in the oil and roast. You can roast with them larger too and then chop them up when they're done, it'll just take them longer to cook.

In the meantime, prepare your pasta. Also, cook up the sausage. When the sausage is cooking, add garlic. Pour wine into sausage and de-glaze the pan, letting the alcohol cook off.

When everything's done, just throw it all together in a large pot and serve, topped with parmesan or mozzarella cheese.
