Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice.

You can never have too many Mediterranean recipes, so give Ratatouille a try. For $2.46 per serving, this recipe covers 26% of your daily requirements of vitamins and minerals. This main course has 634 calories, 14g of protein, and 45g of fat per serving. This recipe serves 8. It is a good option if you're following a lacto ovo vegetarian diet. This recipe from spoonacular user alphydan requires onion, tomato paste, basil, and orange bell pepper. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Champagne, Bordeaux, and White Burgundy are my top picks for Ratatouille. French wine is just as diverse as French food, but you rarely go wrong with champagne. If your meal calls for a white wine, you might also try a white burgundy. For a red, try a red bordeaux blend. The Chateau Bellevue Bordeaux Superieur with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.

Chateau Bellevue Bordeaux Superieur

With its deep red color and nose of red fruits including blackberry and blackcurrant, this wine is round in the mouth and full and fleshy. Château Bellevue is slightly spicy with nice length and pleasant tannins. Pairs nicely with grilled meats such as duck, roasted beef, and leg of lamb. The slight spice to wine makes it a great accompaniment for pastas with red sauce and barbeque foods such as chicken, sliders, and ribs. The velvety finish to the wine complements a variety of cheeses.

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven to 350-375. Defrost the puff pastry sheets and spread over baking dish.
  2. Make the tomato sauce: Cook the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, onions, and garlic over medium heat until sauce thickens. Add water or more paste as necessary. Add in the herbs and stir. Slowly incorporate the half & half and agave and adjust until you reach the desired balance of acidity and savory.
  3. Precook the eggplant. I find this step extremely important unless youre using Japanese eggplants which cook more easily. Saute the eggplant slices in olive oil over medium to high heat and flip on other side until cooked and soft.
  4. Spread the tomato sauce into the baking dish on top of the puff pastry. Then layer the veggies and cheese on top (eggplant, zucchini, bell pepper, cheese, and so forth).
  5. Bake for about 40-50 minutes until puff pastry is golden brown and vegetables and cheese are bubbly without being overcooked.
  6. Be transported into the French countryside
