Pixar Ratatouille

Yield: Makes 10 servings

Ingredients:

1 onion, processed
2 garlic cloves,crushed
2cups tomato puree mixed with 1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes (I used thai red pepper flakes)
2 tablespoons olive oil,
1 small eggplant
2 small or 1 large zucchini
2 small or 1 large yellow squash
1 long red bell pepper and 1 long yellow pepper
Goat Cheese (optional)
Salt and pepper (to taste)

Directions:

Heat oven to 425 degrees
Pour tomato puree into bottom of an oval baking dish, Drop the sliced garlic cloves and chopped onion into the sauce, stir in oregano, crushed red pepper flakes, one tablespoon of the olive oil, and season the sauce generously with salt and pepper.
Trim the ends off the eggplant, zucchini and yellow squash. Trim the top of the red pepper and remove the core.
On an adjustable-blade slicer or with a very sharp knife, cut the eggplant, zucchini, yellow squash and red pepper into very thin slices.
On top of the tomato sauce, arrange slices of prepared vegetables from the outer edge to the inside of the baking dish, overlapping so just a little of each flat surface is visible, alternating vegetables. You might have some left.
Drizzle the remaining tablespoon olive oil over the vegetables and season them with salt and pepper. bake for 20-30min Sprinkle goat cheese on top and serve as a side dish :)
