Grilled Vegetable Ratatouille
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 medium-size tomatoes, cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 medium-large eggplant, cut in 1/3-inch slices
- 3 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped

- 1 green bell pepper, halved
- Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
Instructions
- Brush all vegetables except the tomato with olive oil and grill until fork tender. Remove peppers from the grill and place them in a plastic bag to continue steaming and cool down. Set aside other vegetables until cool enough to touch.
- Add cut-up tomatoes to a large bowl. Add the basil, vinegar, capers, parsley and any remaining olive oil to the bowl.
- When the grilled vegetables have cooled enough to touch, peel peppers and chop all vegetables into uniform bite-size pieces. Add to the bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and toss
- Set aside for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours to allow flavors to marry. Serve warm or at room temperature.
