Course: Main Course
Servings: 0

Ingredients

For ratatouille:

  • 1 1/2 small eggplants
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 3 small zucchinis
  • 3 small yellow squash

For sauce:

  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1/2 medium yellow onion
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 - 15 oz. can of diced tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes or less to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375º. Add the ingredients for the sauce into a blender and blend until smooth. Save ¼ of the sauce for later and pour the rest into the cast-iron skillet. Spread around to smooth it out.
  • Wash all of the veggies and slice them very thin – less than ¼" thick is best.
  • Start arranging the slices in a spiral around the skillet, alternating between veggies.
  • When the skillet is full, drizzle the remaining sauce over the top of the veggies. Lay a piece of parchment over the top of the skillet and bake for 1 hour.
