    Looks delicious! One question – in the pics it looks as if tomatoes are included in the recipe, but not according to the ingredients listed? Thanks 🙂

      Hi Anita,
      There is no tomatoes in the eggplant meatballs. The tomatoes are from the sauce that I used to heat the meatballs and then serve over the pasta. I hope this answers your question. Have a wonderful day.
