Ratatouille
And then there is…Ratatouille! Whether you get your veggies from your garden, or your farmer’s market (ours was a mix of both), this is the time to make your Ratatouille.
We cooked this on the griddle, but just using the heat (other than the chicken for Don) in two iron skillets to retain the juices. This very much is a vegetarian meal, but Don wanted some protein on his. So diced chicken breast was cooked separately and added on at the end to his portion.
We diced up everything you see. onions, mushrooms, zuchini, peppers…whatever you like. But you need some tomatoes in the mix. The seasoning was black pepper, and whatever herbs were in the garden, mostly basil and parsley. These were tossed with avocado oil and some light seasoning…salt and pepper with a little cayenne.
Ratatouille is the easiest meal to produce, and yet incredibly full of flavor.
