I Love Ratatouille - Both the Movie AND the Dish! :)
This was the first movie I watched with my hubby when we were dating. And no wonder, we both love French Food! :)

I can't take the credit for this recipe. Like most of you, a long time ago I googled it and found the recipe I loved! Thankfully, this one I recorded where I got it from.
So THANKS to Chefdehome! 
This is a tested, tried and true recipe by JoyFull Eating. 

If you are 
Gluten Free or Vegan, just skip the béchamel sauce part. 

I use this as a great side dish, but if you want to make it the focus, I often serve it over pasta or some steamed rice/quinoa (gluten free).
Enjoy!
