This isn't really a recipe as much as an idea to toss things in a casserole and call it dinner. You can make a quick sauce by heating a splash of olive oil, adding tomato sauce or chopped tomatoes, a palmful of Oregano, salt and pepper and simmer for 10 minutes.

- 1-2 pound barely cooked Pasta
- 2 Eggplants, peeled and chopped
- 2 cups Mushrooms, sliced

- 2 Onions, chopped
- 4 cloves Garlic, chopped
- fresh Basil Leaves
- Pasta Sauce-Quick homemade or jarred
- Cooked Chicken and/or Veggie Sausages
- grated or fresh Mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Heat oven to 400 and glaze a sheet pan with olive oil
- Salt and Pepper the Eggplant and toss onto the sheet with the Onions, Mushrooms and Garlic
- Roast about 20 minutes while the pasta cooks
- Spray or wipe a casserole dish with olive oil
- Toss in half the Pasta
- Layer with Roasted Veg, Artichokes, Chicken and/or Sausage and Cheese and half the Sauce
- Toss in some Basil Leaves
- Top with the rest of the Pasta and Sauce and sprinkle Cheese on top
- Cook for 20 minutes until hot and bubbling
