Here's a little something vaguely North African-style I threw together last night out of what was in the house; it was good then and better today.

Cook about 1½ c. barley in salted water till it's done but still slightly chewy. Drain if there's liquid left. (The liquid will be appreciated by your pet on h/is dry food.) Peel and dice One very large (12") or two average (6") eggplants, One medium-sized butternut squash, seeds and goo removed and One small onion, minced fine. Cook veggies till tender in barely enough salted water to do the job (not quite enough to cover) with About 1 rounded tsp. basil.

When done, add remaining ingredients. Cook a few more minutes to thicken and (if necessary) reduce sauce, stirring frequently. Salt to taste and serve over barley.
