This is an old recipe that I have made for many years. It may be a Weight Watchers recipe, but the vegetables are loaded with flavor and the pasta is totally satisfying.

How to make it

- Rinse vegetables under running cold water; drain and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a 12" nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat ; add eggplant, zucchini and onions and saute until soft, about 14 to 2 minutes.
- Add tomatoes, reserved liquid, tomato paste, remaining 1/2 tsp salt, oregano basil garlic powder, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally,
