Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large eggplant, peeled and cut into chunks (10"-12-inch long)
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 zucchini, cut into chunks (6-inch long)
2 roma tomatoes, chopped
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup seasoned dipping oil or 1/4 cup other seasoned oil
1/8 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • In a big pot over medium high heat, add olive oil, garlic, onion, red bell pepper, zucchini, eggplant and Italian Seasoning.
  • You may need to add more oil to coat the vegetables.
  • Don't worry, you will drain most of it off later.
  • Cook and stir until eggplant is tender.
  • It will take 15 minutes or more.
  • While still cooking, stir in Seasoned Dipping Oil, or other seasoned/flavored oil plus vinegar and salt and pepper to taste.
  • After eggplant is tender, turn off heat and then drain the mixture of all excess oil and blot with paper towels.
  • Spread mixture on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes.
  • Let cool slightly and then spoon into a casserole dish.
  • Top with mozarella.
  • It can be refrigerated at this point to be served later.
  • Before serving, bake or microwave, covered, until it is hot (if it has been refrigerated) and cheese is melted.
