You and I come to worship hungry! We must not come with hands full of goodies and gifts, thinking that worship is fundamentally where we serve and feed God… Don’t come to God with a cooked goose on a platter, as if God were hungry. Come with open hands and an empty belly and let Him honor Himself by filling you (Psalm 50:10-12). This sentiment was echoed by Paul in his sermon on Mars Hill: The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with human hands; neither is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, since He himself gives to all life and breath and all things (Acts 17:24-25). Worship is a feast in which God is the host, the cook, the waiter, and the meal itself.

Recipe by: Sunset's Trattoria:  Best of Casual Italian Cooking (1995)
Preparation Time: 1:00 STEP #1 - Cut 4 thin slices from the eggplant,
lengthwise, 1/4 inch thick (6mm). Cut 4 slices from the zucchini,
lengthwise, 1/8 inch thick (3mm). Use the small amount of olive oil to
lightly coat each slice of eggplant an zucchini. Use a broiler or a large
griddle to cook the vegetables (about 4 to 5 minutes per side for the
eggplant and about 2 to 3 minutes per side fo the zucchini), until lighly
golden. Transfer to a plate and let cool.
STEP #2 - OVEN and STUFFING Spray individual non-metal casserole dishes or
a 1-quart casserole lightly, bottom and sides. Position rack in middle of
oven and preheat to 400F/200C. Mix the stuffing ingredients in a bowl,
including the salt and pepper, unti blended.
STEP #3 - The ROLLATINI are folded into thirds to envelope a log of stuffin
On the  cutting board, lay 1 eggplant slice flat with a long side toward
you.  Place 1 zucchini slice on top of it.  Gently shape 2 to 3 tablespoons
of the stuffing into a log and place in the center, crosswise. Fold first
one end then the other end of the vegetables over the stuffing.  Place the
rollatini, seam-side down, in the casserole.  Repeat for the remaining
rollatini.
STEP #4 - Baking and topping.  Cover with foil.  Place in the oven, center
rack, and immediately reduce the heat to 350F/180C. Bake until heated
through 20 to 25 minutes.  Remove from the oven and spoon the tomato sauce
evenly over the rolls and top with the thinly sliced provolone.  Bake,
uncovered, until the cheese melts and is attractively golden (about 6 to 8
minutes.  Remove from the oven and let stand for a few minutes.  Menu:
bread, crisp salad with ceasar or greek salad.
When doubling - do not increase oil for coating, or the egg white for
binding, or the tomato sauce for topping.  These should be increased as nee
Leftover TIP - Bake any extra eggplant or zucchini.
