1 cup chopped onion
1 medium zucchini, cubed
2 tbsps olive oil
1 1/2 cups cubed eggplant (1/2 a medium to large)
1 cup chopped sweet bell pepper, red or green
2 medium whole tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tsps fresh thyme leaves (about 4 sprigs)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tbsp black pepper
6 pieces baby portabella mushrooms
Instructions
1. Heat olive oil in non-stick skillet on medium high heat (do not let oil smoke or get too hot).
2. Sauté the chopped onions, green pepper, zucchini, and eggplant, stirring occasionally for approximately 10 minutes.
3. Add chopped tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, thyme, salt and pepper; stir. Optionally add tablespoon or so of water if needed. A squeeze of lemon juice enhances the flavor.
4. Cover and turn heat to low and steam (stirring occasionally) for additional 10 minutes or until vegetables are to desired tenderness.
5. Note: can substitute 1/2 can (14.5 oz) of unsalted diced tomatoes for fresh tomatoes without noticeably altering the nutritional values. Serving size is approximately one half cup. This tastes even better the next day!
