My oldest daughter thought it was so cool to make Ratatouille like in the Disney movie, Ratatouille. I used the eggplant from the Asian themed veggie pack I got this week, a zucchini I had left in my fridge, rosemary, oregano, and parsley from the Italian themed veggie pack a few weeks pack, and tomato and onion from this week’s basket. It tasted really good, but my presentation needs some work. I had wanted to use a round casserole dish, but it wasn’t fitting right, so I put it in a 13 x 9 pan instead. But, then it was all spread out too much, but it still cooked fine. Also, most recipes also call for peppers, which I have, but just didn’t add in since my husband doesn’t really like cooked peppers.
