Description

My garden cannot stop producing.  There are twinges of fall in the air, and the sun is lower in the sky, but I am continuing to have an abundance of beautiful, vibrant vegetables.  My Late Summer Ratatouille is perfect for using up all those extra garden or CSA vegetables. A trip to the farmer’s market would do the trick too.  Have you been lately?  They are bursting with all sorts of tomatoes, eggplant, and squash.


Ingredients

Units Scale

1 large red onion, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
2 medium eggplant, diced
4 summer squash, a combination of yellow and zucchini
2 pints cherry tomatoes, sliced
2 ears of corn, peeled and kernels removed
1 large bunch of basil, stems removed and chopped


Instructions

  1.  In a soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Stir and continue cooking until onions are soft, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the eggplant and continue sautéing for another 2 minutes.  Add in the squash and another sprinkle of salt and pepper.  Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Stir in the tomatoes and the corn.  Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add in the basil, stirring to combine.  Serve over brown rice or quinoa for a vegetarian meal, or with roasted chicken.
