Fettucine and Panko Breaded Eggplant



Fettucine tossed with olive oil, garlic, oven roasted tomatoes, spinach, basil and hot chili flakes. Eggplant breaded with panko breadcrumbs and shallow fried.

For the oven roasted tomatoes, I cubed Romas but left the yellow/orange cherry tomatoes whole. Then I tossed liberally with olive oil, salt, pepper, minced garlic and some sugar. It went into a 425F oven for about 45 mins.

I know it's summer but I've been doing a lot of oven roasting lately!

Ha! That's true. I'm just so used to NOT turning on the oven in the summer. :)

I always seem to use my oven just as much in the summer. Some things just taste better roasted!
You gotta love pasta!
