Here is how you make White Bean Alfredo Casserole:

Prepare eggplant and Bell peppers the day before. Eggplant: Place eggplant cubes in a salad spinner, and sprinkle with salt. Allow to sit in sink for 1/2 hr. Then thoroughly rinse salt away from eggplant and spin dry. Toss dry cubes with Newman's Own Italian dressing, as per ingredient list. Next, spray a baking pan with cooking spray. Mine suck to the pan anyways, either I forgot or did not spray enough.Bake in a 400 degree preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip cubes with a metal spatula and roast for another 10-20 minutes. Eggplant should shrink quite a bit. Allow to cool, place in lidded container and store in the refrigerator.Bell peppers: Flatten inside surface against broiler pan with the flat of your hand. Brush a scant amount of olive oil on outside surface, facing up, of peppers. Broil pepper slices at broiler heat until charred spots begin to appear. Remove from broiler and allow to cool. Dice the pepper slices, and store in refrigerator in a sealed container.Pasta: Prepare enough whole wheat rotini to equal 3 cups cooked (approx. 1 1/2 cups dry) according to pkg directions. Drain in colander in sink and rinse with cold water. Let pasta continue to drain.Casserole: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Drain can of white beans. In a large bowl, combine eggplant, peppers, beans, Alfredo sauce, and 1/2 cup of the shredded mozzarella. Add rotini and mix well. Spray an 8 x 8 glass pan with pan spray. Sprinkle remaining 1 cup of cheese over casserole. Spray aluminum foil casserole side and cover dish (This prevents the cheese from sticking to the foil.) Bake for 20-35 minutes until casserole is hot and cheese is bubbly; remove foil for last 10 minutes of baking to ensure cheese is melted.Serving Size: Makes 4 servings.Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SUNNYCALIGIRL.
