We loved this! I used one and a half small eggplants and 2 cups of the frozen 3 pepper and onion blend instead of the fresh (what can I say, I'm busy!) I used the additional onion. I also goofed and only bought one squash and one zucchini. I used Hunt's Fire Roasted Tomatoes - it was GREAT! I added 1/2 C (dry) couscous - that I cooked w/o oil or butter/salt, etc. to the mix. My husband said it was too much couscous, but I liked it! Anyway, it feed 5 and we are BIG eaters! Thanks!
