Quote of the Day

My prayer for you is that your love for others will grow more and more, and at the same time keep on growing in Christ, To see clearly the difference between right and wrong, and to be clean in your heart. ~ Philippians 1:9-10

zucchini ratatouille

This recipe grew out of a hunt through the pantry that yielded a jar of spaghetti sauce and very little else. We liked it so well we made it the next day too.

Zucchini Ratatouille

chop coarsely & combine:
1 giant zucchini
1 large onion
6 cloves of garlic
1/4 C olive oil

mix together:
1/4 C basil strips (basil leaves that you have cut into ribbons by rolling them up and slicing) or 1 T dried basil
1/4 C fresh parsley or 1 T dried parsley
1/8 C fresh thyme or 1 t dried thyme
1/2 t ground cloves
1 t salt

dig out:
1 jar of spaghetti sauce
1 C Parmesan cheese, grated

layer:
1/2 of the vegies
1/2 the seasoning
1/2 jar of spaghetti sauce
1/2 C Parmesan
1/2 of the vegies
1/2 the seasoning
1/2 jar of of spaghetti sauce
1/2 C Parmesan

(if you can, mix all this up hours ahead and let the flavors meldge before you bake it. Add a little baking time to bring it up to temp from the fridge).

cover & bake:

350 for 45 minutes, or until the whole thing is bubbly.


Serve with good bread.
