- 1 large Eggplant

- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 4 large Tomatoes
- 1 large Onion

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Dice the eggplant, zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper into bite-sized pieces.
Chop the onion finely and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Chop the tomatoes into chunks and stir them into the vegetable mixture.
Add the fresh thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine well.
Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.
Bake for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and the flavors are well combined.
Once out of the oven, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the ratatouille for garnish.
Serve hot over cooked quinoa for a filling and nutritious meal, or with crusty bread for a rustic accompaniment.
