Eggplant makes my mouth itch, so I make a variation of ratatouille where I use the veggies I can easily get here in Colorado. I especially love to make this at the end of the summer when the zucchini is abundant.
Colorado Ratatouille |
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
Garden Fresh Vegetables |
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp chopped fresh basil
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 medium zucchini
1 medium yellow summer squash
2 large ripe tomatoes
6 garlic cloves
1 large onion
2 russet potatoes
salt and pepper
dried parsley
dried basil
Directions:
Wash all veggies. Drizzle 1 tsp olive oil in the bottom of a large soup pan. Cut all the veggies in rounds and crush the garlic cloves.
Layer the veggies in the soup pan and add salt, pepper, dried basil, parsley and crushed garlic between the layers. I like to order the veggies with zucchini on the bottom followed by potato, tomato, summer squash, and onion. Then I add some herbs and start again until all the vegetables are used up. I didn't include specific amounts of the dried herbs, salt and pepper because I just sprinkle a little each time.

To serve, drizzle with olive oil and add more fresh herbs. I also like to add some vegan parmesan ( I think Go Veggie makes a great parmesan) or nutritional yeast for added flavor.
