We had a mini dinner party the other night where Britney requested that I attempt ratatouille. Ratatouille was attempted, we deemed it a success and I re-named it Mouse-a-touille because…well…I guess I was just feeling a bit silly.

Ingredients:
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp organic butter
vegetable broth
1 eggplant, chopped
half cup fresh basil, chopped
1 white onion, peeled and chopped
2 zucchinis or yellow squash, chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 pound fresh tomatoes, cored and chopped
sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 to 1 cup raw pecorino romano (sheep cheese), shredded
Preheat oven to 350. Warm 1 Tbsp. of butter and a splash of broth in a large pan and saute garlic, basil, and eggplant until eggplant is soft. Combine with remaining vegetables and pour into a baking dish. Melt and drizzle another Tbsp. of butter and a little more broth on top of the veggies and bake for an hour. Turn oven off and remove dish. Add shredded cheese and place in the oven for just a minute or two more to melt.
