SERVINGS LACTO  Extra ricotta filling from this easy recipe makes a
great sandwich  spread and pasta sauce.  FILLING: in food processor,
puree all filling ingredients. Transfer  to bowl and refrigerate until

cooking spray; arrange  eggplant slices in a single layer on sheet.

12-inch baking dish. Place 1 to 2 tablespoons ricotta filling in
center of each eggplant slice; roll. Arrange rolls in baking dish,
seam-side down. Top rolls with remaining sauce; sprinkle with
mozzarella. Bake until eggplant is tender and heated through, 25 to  30
minutes.  PER SERVING: 308 CAL.; 19G PROT.; 16G TOTAL FAT (7G SAT.
