"Anyone can cook!"

Tonight I made ratatouille (inspired by the Disney movie, duh!) for dinner for my family! It was made with all fresh ingredients, and vegetarian friendly for all the veg-heads out there;) It was a perfect light summer dish. I found a recipe on Pinterest for it but tweaked it a little. Here's how I made it:

1 large eggplant

1 zucchini 

1 yellow squash 

1/2 of a large onion

2 tomatoes

2 cloves of garlic (chopped fine)

Olive oil

Salt, pepper, & basil for taste

Set your oven to 350 degrees. Coat the inside of a casserole dish with olive oil. Cook down the tomatoes with some of the garlic, a pinch of basil, and olive oil in a pan. Then spread half of it in the bottom of the casserole dish. Then slice the eggplant, zucchini, squash, and onions and distribute them in a pattern around the dish. Then drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil on top of it, and top with the other half of the tomatoes. Then sprinkle with the chopped garlic, slant, and pepper. Then cover the casserole dish with the lid and put in the oven for 45 minutes, or more until the vegetables get soft and fully cooked. I recommend serving it with a nice crusty loaf of bread! Mhmmm delicious!

And voila! It's as easy as that! You're a chef just like in the movie "Ratatouille," only you don't have a pet rat named Remi on your shoulder helping you out with the dish! ;)
