TORTELLINI WITH ROASTED EGGPLANT & PEPPERS-SOUTH BEACH DIET
Another of our South Beach favorites, healthy and oh so delicioso! Inspired by a recipe we saw on the South Beach Diet website. Fresh whole wheat tortellini can be found in many higher end grocery stores but you can easily substitute with 8 oz whole wheat penne rigate which is readily available in most grocery stores these days. Other ingredients are easily adapted to your individual tastes as well. Manja!
