I have been looking for well seasoned vegetarian recipes for my parents to try. This one was excellent. Very easy to make and didn't have to stand over a hot stove all day. We love the flavor of basil and this recipe really highlights it. Thanks Bev, my parents, husband and I really enjoyed this one.

Excellent basic recipe for ratatouille. Those that did not find it flavorful enough just add come hot pepper flakes (or whatever your choice is) and it does make a difference. Also, you can add hot Italian sausages (simmered for 5 mins. and skinned) cut in 1/2 inch lengths. There are many variations.

A winner! I used oven-dried tomatoes (see Mirj's recipe) and this had a great flavor. My guests dug into this with gusto. I added the feta just before I served it, that really made the dish, IMO. I can see having this alone with crunchy bread for supper. I'm hoping the family doesn't wipe out the leftovers before I can pack some up for tomorrow's lunch! Thanks, Bev!

This was so good. I had a hard time not picking at it after dinner. I did add some chicken breast and a little sugar to help cut down on the acidity. This will be fixed often in our house.

This is a wonderful dish to serve when here in August when tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants are coming in and zucchini is still going strong. Loved using so many garden fresh veggies!
I've made this a few times now, once as stated which is great. I've also used spaghetti sauce instead of tomato paste and served over pasta. It's worked both following the instructions and glopping everything together and cooking on low while I was at work.
I don't bother with preparing the eggplant...I thought that was usually done when frying to reduce the amount of oil that's absorbed.

When it's to hot to cook go for the slow cooker. I was a little skeptical about the 3 hours but it was right on target. I did follow the advice of a couple of reviewers and added in a sprinkling of red pepper flakes. Japanese eggplant fresh from my garden was used so no need to peel the eggplant. It has a delicious richness in flavor. This was served on top of polenta and topped off with shaved parmesan cheese.

This is an excellent recipe. It can be a hot main dish, with some crusty french bread, a side dish, or it makes a great appetizer, served cold on rounds of little rye or pumpernickel bread or some interesting crackers.

I combined everything into slow cooker. The taste was a little bit bland. I would add more spices or spaghetti sauce next time to give it more flavor.

This is a simple recipe that, in my opinion, needs a bit of jazzing up. If served with either feta or chevre and a nice, crusty bread, it works fairly well. However, I think a little more herb flavoring would be in order, although I'm not sure just which ones yet, so I will have to experiment.

i had to make this in a covered stock pot on med-low since it wouldn't fit in my big crock pot but that seemed to work fine, just more like an hour and a half instead of three hours. i left out the fresh basil but it was fine without. topping with feta was a lovely touch. will make this again!

Delicious and healthy to boot! I liked putting this on top of a baked potato with a little mozzarella. Thanks for the recipe.

Healthy and delicious recipe. We top it with a little goat cheese and add a side of whole grain bread. It is a wonderful, filling, and complete meal. Thank you for a wonderful recipe.

Tasty, easy and healthy. A wonderful recipe. I didn't have a crock pot so I cooked it on the stove on low heat for a couple hours and it still turned out great. We had it straight with bread the first night and then over noodles the second night.

I put it together in the crock pot in the morning and it was ready by lunchtime for a work potluck. Lots of compliments and recipe requests - all in all, an A+!

Very good! I made the recipe almost exactly as written ( I put the tomato paste and olives in at the beginning as did another reviewer). I too added about a teaspoon of sugar and a pinch of cinnamon (a trick from my Grandma) to reduce the acidity. It was great as a main course and I can see where it would work well in a rollup (burrito style) with some cheese. Yum! Thank you Bev, for sharing!

I made this for my son becuase of the movie. I did everything except add the olives. He said it tasted like spaghetti without the noodles.

This recipe was great, even the 3 kids loved it. I made a double batch that we served first on its own then the second night with some leftover pesto pasta. It was great even for lunch the third day over some leftover white rice.

Maybe my expectations were too high since this had a 5 star rating. Unfortunately I have to give this recipe just 3 stars, because it was just okay, j that was my family's conclusion. I will not be making this recipe again.
