Pat's Flavorful Ratatouille 🍆🥒🍅

This delightful Ratatouille recipe captures the essence of summer vegetables and is as vibrant as it is nourishing! Perfect as a side dish or a filling vegetarian main, it’s a versatile dish that can be enjoyed warm, cold, or reheated. The flavors meld beautifully over time, making it a fantastic choice for meal prep. Pair it with crusty bread or serve it over rice or pasta for a hearty meal! 🍞🍝

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine all diced vegetables and the cut-up tomatoes.

🥄 Sauté the onions and garlic first for an additional depth of flavor. Just a minute or two until fragrant makes a world of difference!

  1. Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and oregano. Stir well to incorporate all flavors.

  2. Cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes.

🔥 If you like a bit of a char on your veggies, consider roasting them in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 25 minutes before tossing them into the saucepan for cooking!

  1. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed before serving.

Variations

🌿 To store leftovers, let the Ratatouille cool completely, then refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months for a quick meal later on!

Enjoy this colorful dish that celebrates the best of fresh vegetables! Bon appétit! 🥗✨
