Directions
Cook pasta shells.
While cooking pasta heat a large skillet with the water and vinegar.
While water is getting hot add the cubed eggplant, onion, chives, garlic, green peppers, and mushrooms.
Sauté until soft (fairly high heat for about 15 to 20 minutes stirring a lot).
When done add to the pasta along with the tomato sauce, oregano, salt, pepper and red wine.
Stir and heat gently (on low).
