Directions
1. Preheat the broiler. Coat a large baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray. Coat a 9"x 9" baking dish with cooking spray. 2. Peel the eggplant, if desired. Cut lengthwise into 1/4"-thick slices. Place on the prepared baking sheet and coat with cooking spray. Broil 6" from the heat for 10 minutes or until softened and lightly browned, turning once. Reduce the oven to 350°F. 3. Combine the ricotta, Parmesan, basil, and pepper in a medium bowl. Divide evenly between the eggplant, spooning onto 1 end of each slice. Roll the slices around the filling, starting from a short side. Arrange seam sides down in the prepared baking dish. Spoon 2 cups of the marinara sauce over the eggplant rolls and sprinkle with the mozzarella. 4. Cover and bake for 25 minutes or until heated through. 5. Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti per the package directions. Drain. Heat the remaining 2 cups marinara sauce in the same pot. Divide the pasta onto 4 plates and top each with 1/2 cup of the sauce. Serve the rollatini alongside.

How good does this look.






These are my latest favorite dressings. They are yogurt based 2 pts. per serving. a serving is 2 Tbs. which does not seem much, but it really is. Using the correct servings has made me appreciate the taste of the veggie. But, these dressings really do tast good. I am picky about my dressings. If it taste bad, I just won't eat the salad.

Scott has been craving a salad, so here it is. How good and filling is this!
