Baby Ratatouille

By chelyc13

Ratatouille is a French vegetable stew. As shown here, this recipe can be cooked on the stove, but it's also a fantastic slow cooker meal. Microwaving is also acceptable, although the vegetables won't have the chance to simmer together and the flavors will not be as developed.

• 1/2 small onion, diced
• 1/2 small eggplant, diced
• 16 oz can stewed tomatoes
• 1/2 teas oregano
