1 cup finely chopped carrot
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
2 teaspoons minced garlic (about 4 cloves)
2 cups finely chopped reduced-fat firm tofu, drained (about 11 ounces)
2 cups diced eggplant
1 cup diced zucchini
1 cup chopped plum tomato
4 teaspoons Pesto Coulis
2 (14-ounce) cans no-salt-added tomato sauce
1 teaspoon ground cumin

Preparation
1. Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add carrot to pan; sauté 6 minutes. Add onion, basil, thyme, and garlic; sauté 4 minutes. Add tofu, eggplant, and zucchini; sauté 4 minutes or until tender. Add chopped tomato, Pesto Coulis, and tomato sauce; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
