it's been many months since i posted a recipe but this one is so good and easy i had to share it. i'm not sure where it came from since it was passed around at work. it's all done in one bowl and is cooked completely in the microwave. it also freezes nicely so you may want to double the recipe! 1. combine onion, green pepper and garlic in a 2 quart casserole. add sauteeing liquid; stir. microwave, uncovered, at high power until onion and pepper are tender, 2½ to 3 minutes.
2. stir in tomato sauce and paste, parsley, sugar, basil, oregano, and pepper flakes. microwave, uncovered, at high power until sauce is bubbly, 3 to 5 minutes; stir once during cooking.
3. cut eggplant into ½ inch cubes; place in 8x8 inch baking dish.
microwave, covered with waxed paper, at high power until tender, 6 to 8 minutes; stir once during cooking.
