Turkey Ratatouille

Turkey Ratatouille
Recipe Tip
Edible Eggplant
Eggplant offers a host of nutrients including potassium and fiber. Be sure to get at least 3 to 5 servings of veggies daily.
Variation
Go vegetarian! Skip the turkey, pepper and oil and steps 1 and 2. Add 2 cans (15 to 16 ounces each) garbanzo beans with the tomatoes in step 4. It’s that easy!
Turkey adds a twist to the classic French ratatouille, a blend of sautéed fresh eggplant, zucchini, peppers, onions and tomatoes. From eatbetteramerica.
