Ratatouille










Ingredients:

 2 cups of marinara
1 zucchini sliced
1 yellow squash sliced
1 Italian zucchini sliced
1 eggplant sliced
1 potato peeled and sliced
2 tomatoes sliced
1 red bell pepper sliced
Salt and pepper
Few sprigs of thyme (optional)

 Method:

 Start by preparing a baking dish or a casserole by spreading some marinara sauce onto it.

 Now take a slice of each of the vegetable and arrange them in a desired order.

 Once that is done, pour over the remaining marinara sauce on top of it and season with some salt and pepper.  You can also sprinkle some Parmesan cheese if you wish to along with some thyme.

 Place the tray in the oven preheated at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 to 35 minutes or until you see the sauce bubbling.

 You can even broil it for an additional 3 minutes if you want to give an extra crunch to your veggies.

 Serve it hot as a side or as a meal with some bread.
