    Recipe



    1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly coat a 10-inch pie
    plate with cooking spray.

    2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
    Add onions; sauté 3 minutes. Add eggplant, yellow peppers,
    garlic, black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook,
    stirring often, for 5 minutes or until eggplant is softened.
    Stir in tomatoes and marjoram. Cook for 2 minutes. Let cool
    for 10 minutes.

    3. In a blender, process ricotta, yogurt, egg whites, flour,
    baking powder, Parmesan, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon of the
    salt until smooth.

    4. Spoon half of the vegetables into the pie plate. Pour the
    cheese mixture over the vegetables. Top with the remaining
    vegetables.

    5. Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in
    the center comes out clean. Let it stand at least 15 minutes
    before slicing and serving. Serves 6

    regular whole wheat flour.
