Category: Pasta - Baked
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1/2 lb Italian sausage, mild or hot
1 medium roasted round eggplant
1 head roasted garlic
3 large roasted red bell peppers Ones in jars are OK
2 tsp salt
2 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 lb ricotta cheese

In a fry pan or in the microwave, cook the Italian sausage to remove the fat. Let the sausage cool and combine the above ingredients [except ricotta] in a food processor, and process to a coarse chop. Fold in the ricotta cheese and refrigerate.

Pasta: In hot boiling water to which a tsp of salt has been added, place 12 oz of giant pasta shells and cook until al dente. Drain and rinse in cold water. Set aside.

Sauce:
8 pear or Roma tomatoes, blanched, peeled and seeded.
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
1 clove crushed garlic
1 tsp salt
1 tsp. pepper
1/2 cup white wine

Dice the tomatoes and add all the ingredients to a saucepan and simmer for 35 minutes.

Assembly: With a spoon, or I use a pastry bag), fill the shells quite full with the filling. Place the shells in teflon coated baking dish or pan. Pour the sauce over the shells, making sure to cover them. Grate about 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese over the top and bake at 325 for about 20 minutes and serve.
