Recipe

Since so many requested the recipe yesterday, I decided to post the recipe.

 

I found the recipe in Taste of Home magazine in the August/September 2008 issue. I love that magazine!

I have made the recipe as presented here, but I have also substituted summer squash instead of the eggplant, which is delicious. Also, I have forgotten to put the basil and parmesan cheese on at the end at it changes the flavor immensely, do not forget! Make sure that all the moisture from the vegetables is evaporated, otherwise you will have a soggy tart, and nobody wants that. :)
