  1. This was very good, my husband is so picky when it comes to vegetables, but even he enjoyed this. Like the other cook, I too added chili flakes and mixed the green zucchini with the yellow squash. Thanks for the great recipe!

  3. Hi Susie, this a great recipe for ratatouille. I added a few chilli flakes (I always do), an extra clove of garlic (I always do) and used two green zucchini and two yellow to mix up the colours a bit. The end result was hearty and healthy, not to mention delicious. The eggplant was sweet and flavoursome and the dish was lacking in the acidity that can accompany some ratatouilles - I imagine this was due to the bit of sugar added. Great work, Susie, thanks for sharing!

I live in Australia but I am Spanish. I am a dressmaker by trade but find myself enjoying cooking more these days. I have a great collection of recipes, some from magazines and some my own which I would love to publish one day. Having had gestational diabetes two times in my pregnancies, I have now become challenged to create a book on low GI foods and recipes. I just need to get down and do it. I have slowly posted recipes and still have many more various recipes to post. I hope you like what I have so far.
