About
Ratatouille is a french stewed vegetable dish, traditionally made with zucchini, egg plant, tomatoes, onion, and garlic. Many times herbs, such as bay leaf, thyme, and basil are added as well. This recipe was alittle different, I sauted the traditional vegetables, but without the herbs, and with the addition of some southwestern style spices. The kitchen smelled so wonderful while it was cooking, and it was fresh and delicious to eat!
