This is what I made for dinner tonight - it was really tasty.
2 to 2.5 cups cubed eggplant (1/2 in cubes)
2 Roma tomatoes, cut to same size as eggplant.
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
Cooked Pasta
2 oz Mozzarella Cheese, cut into tiny cubes
1 Tbsp Grated Pecorino Romano
Basil, cut into thin ribbons
Balsamic Vinegar
Salt and Pepper to taste
Combine Eggplant, Tomatoes, and Olive Oil in a baking dish. Salt and pepper to taste. Roast in a 400 degree oven for 30 - 35 minutes, stirring occassionally.
Spoon mixture over cooked pasta. Add mozzarella while the eggplant mixture is still hot, so that it melts a bit. Sprinkle with Romano cheese and basil. Add a splash of Balsamic vinegar.
Serves 2. 500 Cal per serving. (I shoot for 600 for dinner, so I added a glass of wine.

Done something similar to this, added bell peppers and used the grill instead of the oven.0
