1 small eggplant, cut into 1-inch pieces |
1 large zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch slices |
4 plum tomatoes, chopped |
1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces |
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided |
4 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1 sheet refrigerated pie pastry |
1 tablespoon cornmeal |
2 tablespoons shredded parmesan cheese |
minced fresh basil, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the vegetables, 3 tablespoons oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Transfer to an ungreased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 450° for 25-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender and moisture has evaporated, stirring every 10 minutes.
