Nutritional values

This Mediterranean vegetable mixture is reminiscent of the classic French dish Ratatouille. However the addition of feta not only adds flavor, but valuable calcium and protein.

To cut down on fat, simply replace the feta cheese with a reduced fat feta variety.

Cyndy from EAT SMARTER's picture
You can replace the spelt flour with whole wheat or even regular flour. With ingredients, you can be very creative and sub in any ingredients you have on hand. This is a great way to use up little bits of everything you have leftover, like meats and vegetables. You can sub in mozzarella and Parmesan for the cheeses.
