Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

4 ts Olive oil Salt and pepper
1 lg Clove garlic, minced 1 1/2 ts Balsamic vinegar
1/2 c Chopped onion 1/4 c Chopped, fresh basil or
2 c Peeled, cubed eggplant 1-1/2 ts dried basil
1 1/2 c Peeled, seeded, chopped 4 ts Toasted sesame seeds
Tomatoes

1. In medium skillet, heat olive oil, and saute garlic and onion
until
onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

2. Stir in eggplant and tomato. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

3. Cover and cook over low heat until eggplant is tender, about 10
minutes.

4. Stir in vinegar and basil.

5. Cook uncovered 5 minutes longer, stirring occasionally.

6. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

NOTE: 1 teaspoon sesame seeds = 15 calories (1 joker).

If you can't find balsamic vinegar, (I hope you can because it is
delicious), try malt vinegar or red wine vinegar, or natural rice
vinegar.
Be adventurous. There are lots of vinegars out there.

Know your vegetables. Choose an eggplant that has a smooth, glossy
surface. Avoid an eggplant that is dull looking and/or soft.
