Pass the Kale
(Skip the Vitamins)
"We have an enormous body of data telling us that plant-rich diets are very healthy," says Josephine Briggs, head of the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, another NIH center. "As soon as we take these various antioxidants [and other nutrients] out and put them in a pill, we're not consistently getting a benefit." (WSJ Article)

Eggplant Rollatini
These will change your mind about eggplant!
Just about the most indulgent treatment of eggplant you can imagine.  Boy are these tasty. 

Most people call these and appetizer, but in my book they're easily a main course.

A dry Sangiovese-based wine is a natural partner, although a good Pinot Noir might go well with that ricotta.

Prepared for the Phantom Gourmet.  Click here for the recipe and video.
