Contributed by : Sherry Hauser

An easy version. Everything goes into one baking dish, then into the oven where, in essence, the ratatouille makes itself.

1/2# zucchini, in 3/4-inch cubes

Preheat the oven to 375 deg.F. In a large bowl, combine the eggplant, zucchini, green and red peppers, onion, tomatoes, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt and olive oil. Toss to blend, then transfer the mixture to a large baking dish, preferably non-metal. Cover and bake 1 hour, then uncover and bake 1 more hour. Stir gently a couple of times during the final hour. Let cool completely.

Just before serving, stir in the capers, olives, parsley and vinegar. Re-season to taste with salt.
