My thoughts:

We've had quite a cherry tomato and eggplant harvest this summer. I was running out of ideas of what to do with them when we got a sudden chilly, rainy spell hit and I got the idea to do a roasted vegetable sauce. I was particularly overwhelmed that night so I gave my husband the recipe and he made it. It came out perfectly and required virtually no hands on time beyond chopping the veggies.
