Geocache Description:

This cache is part of an "Urban Primer" series. It is about a 9 mile route from beginning to end. I highly recommend the use of a bike as there are NO DESIGNATED PARKING AREAS along the route. Things you will need include:
1. Pen
2. Tweezers
3. Pick
4. Mirror
5. Water
6. Gloves
7. Flashlight

I can't help wondering if a nearby restaurant serves this dish...

Ingredients

* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 3 cloves garlic, minced
* 2 teaspoons dried parsley
* 1 eggplant, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
* salt to taste
* 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
* 2 zucchini, sliced
* 1 large onion, sliced into rings
* 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
* 1 green bell pepper, sliced
* 2 large tomatoes, chopped

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat bottom and sides of a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
2. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Saute garlic until lightly browned. Mix in parsley and eggplant. Saute until eggplant is soft, about 10 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
3. Spread eggplant mixture evenly across bottom of prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle with a few tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. Spread zucchini in an even layer over top. Lightly salt and sprinkle with a little more cheese. Continue layering in this fashion, with onion, mushrooms, bell pepper, and tomatoes, covering each layer with a sprinkling of salt and cheese.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes.

Please be sure you leave this cache positioned exactly as you found it.
