Classic ratatouille consists of summer squash, bell peppers, tomatoes, onions, and eggplant sautéed and braised together in one dish. In this innovative take on the original, the vegetables are roasted, playfully stacked, and topped with melted smoked mozzarella and a dusting of Parmesan for a crispy finish. The vegetarian dish makes a great side or meat-free main course, particularly when tomatoes, eggplant and pattypan squash are at peak season in summertime. You can also use regular mozzarella cheese, but the smoked version adds more depth of flavor.

This deconstructed ratatouille is super easy and delicious. I love eggplant, so I am slightly biased, but this is one of my favorite vegetable dishes. I also added extra cheese, yum!

Jessica Scott says:

This ratatouille recipe is one of my favorites! I always roast my vegetables ahead of time, just to make it easier on me as far as time goes. I really liked the smoked mozzarella too, that's was a nice touch!
