    1       lb           Italian sausage
    2       md           Onions
      1/2   lb           Mushrooms
    1       sm           Green pepper
                         -(or use frozen
                         -diced pepper)
    1       sm           Eggplant
    1       md           Tomato
    8       oz           Tomato sauce
                         -(1 standard can)
                         Salt, pepper, oregano
                         -to taste
 
   Slice the sausage into bite-size morsels and saute until browned.  Remove
   from pan, leaving fat for next step. (While the sausages are browning, you
   can cut up the vegetables.)
   
   Slice the onions and the mushrooms.  Cut the peppers into 1/2-inch squares
   and dice the tomato. Cut the eggplant into a julienne style.
   
   Add a little oil to the pan and saute the onions, peppers, mushrooms,
   eggplant and tomato until the onions are transparent and soft. Add the
   tomato sauce and the spices and return the sausage to the pan. Cook about
   15 minutes. Serve with fettucine.
   
   NOTES:
   
   *  Spaghetti sauce with sausage, mushrooms and eggplant -- I made up this
   recipe the other day to use up some eggplant.  It was an instant hit.
   Yield: serves 13.
   
   *  Zucchini can be substituted for the eggplant, and canned tomatoes can be
   substituted for the tomato and sauce.  The sauce should be  relatively
   thick. The sausage can be hot or mild Italian sausage, but if you use mild
   sausage you will need to add more spices.
   
   : Difficulty:  easy.
   : Time:  30 minutes.
   : Precision:  no need to measure.
