4 cups fire-roasted, diced tomatoes
4 cloves chopped garlic
1 cup good olive oil
Splash of Sherry (optional)
1 pound eggplant, cubed
1 large onion diced

2 green peppers, diced
2 zucchini, cubed
2 yellow squash, cubed
1 sprig fresh rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste
10 basil leaves chopped
1 bunch chopped parsley
Procedure
Sauté onions and garlic in a sauce pan in good olive oil until onions are tender. Add diced tomato and fresh rosemary and let simmer on low until sauce thickens. Add a splash of Sherry if you would like. Sauté the peppers and set aside. Toss the eggplant in olive oil salt and pepper and roast in oven until tender. Use the same procedure to cook zucchini and yellow squash. Once everything is roasted and tender, combine with the tomato sauce and simmer all together for at least 30 minutes.
