PASTA WITH EGGPLANT AND RICOTTA



Pasta with Eggplant and Ricotta image

One of my most loved vegetables is the eggplant, and today I chose to create yet another dish with eggplant at the centre of it! This pasta sauce combines a lot of South of Italy in it: the sundried tomatoes, the ricotta cheese, the capers and, of course, the eggplant!

BARILLA ROTINI WITH ZUCCHINI, CHERRY TOMATOES & RICOTTA SALA



Barilla Rotini With Zucchini, Cherry Tomatoes & Ricotta Sala image

I found this on the back of a box of Barilla Rotini Pasta. We lilked it so I am posting iit. I added 3 ribs of celery sliced, 1 medium green bell pepper chopped, sliced black olives and petitte diced tomatoes in juice. But it is very good the way it was and that is the way I posted it. You can add whatever your family likes to your own tastes. If you cannot find Barilla pasta in your area, just use your favorite curly, twisty pasta. We like the Barilla brand because it always cooks perfectly and is never mushy or "fall apart."

PASTA WITH TOMATOES, BLACK OLIVES AND CAPERS



Pasta With Tomatoes, Black Olives and Capers image

This recipe is much like a puttanesca sauce but without the anchovies. It can be salty so be sure to rinse the olives and capers, especially if you can't find low-salt tomatoes. It's from a cookbook called "Pasta Light" which I've had for 15 years. I wanted to post it here to save it. My picky husband will eat this straight from the pan, before it even goes onto the pasta. Best served with "strand" pasta like spaghetti or linguine, rather than shapes. The recipe doubles well - I often double and freeze half.
