PASTA WITH EGGPLANT AND RICOTTA
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!

If you love ricotta and penne, this dish is perfect! I wanted to post in case anyone else wanted to try, plus, you can see the nutritional information. This makes a great somwhat lighter tasting dinner or a great lunch. I would recommend that if you want a little kick add a few dashed of red pepper flakes or a little bit of cayenne pepper. otherwise serve with a great salad and some garlic rolls.

BARILLA ROTINI WITH ZUCCHINI, CHERRY TOMATOES & RICOTTA SALA
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
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.

- Preheat the oven to 375°. Butter a 9-by-13-inch ovenproof baking dish. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the rigatoni until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain, then transfer to a large bowl. Toss the pasta with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
- Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil. Add half of the eggplant and season with salt and pepper. Cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add the eggplant to the pasta. Repeat with another 1/4 cup of olive oil and the remaining eggplant.
- Add the onion, garlic and remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet. Cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until the onion is lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they have broken down and thickened to a sauce consistency, 7 to 8 minutes. Stir in the 4 tablespoons of butter.
- Add the tomato sauce to the pasta and eggplant along with the pesto and ricotta; season with salt and pepper and toss well. Transfer the rigatoni to the prepared baking dish. Top with the mozzarella and Parmigiano-Reggiano and bake for about 20 minutes, until bubbling and golden on top. Let the pasta stand for 10 minutes before serving
