Yes, assemble in 10 minutes and put in the oven, come back to the kitchen to eat! Yes, and yes! Make something yummy and different with your leftovers!
I don't know if you noticed but it seems like it is the baby season! In our family, 2 precious little boys and 4 new parents are discovering a new life. Can anybody out relate? Or do you have some relatives who can?
A baby, different rhythm, busy days, short nights, and food. Yes, food, anything comestible that will be given the status of lunch or dinner.
Been there. Twice. And trust me, a healthy dinner, quick leftover put together between 2 diapers will come like caviar on a plate! Do the ratatouille one day, fix a leftover another.
A little organization and anything can be done. No baby?! No worries, this is perfect too for anybody, working, stay-at-home, dad, mom, alone! This is too tasty to miss.
The goat cheese is giving such a nice little kick to the ratatouille puree.
