Fabulous recipe! I added some cubed rotisserie chicken to the finished product and it is awesome! Love having a recipe that incorporates all the fresh veggies on hand for the season and the flavor is more than satisfying.

Oh this was very good. The kids liked that I made the food from the movie Ratatouille. I like that I got them to eat a whole bunch of vegetables! We weren't too fond of the goat cheese tossed on top. I think I would like to change it next time by putting some sliced Fontina on top while baking. Made and Reviewed for I Recommend Tag - Thanks! :)
