My friend started telling me about caponata when I was wondering what to do with the single small eggplant I was able to harvest from our garden this year. She didn't have a recipe, but gave me a list of ingedients. Tried to figure it out this afternoon and it turned out good. She suggested eating it with pita as a snack or appetizer.

Add rest of onion and garlic and cook until translucent. Add tomato,raisins, Splenda, and oregano. Simmer for about 20 minutes so flavors have a chance to blend.
