What a whirlwind of a week. I haven’t had much time on here and with my last post well over a week ago, I have some serious catching up to do.
I haven’t had extra time to make the finer things, like planned desserts, but this grilled ratatouille was superb with grilled steak.
Fennel,zucchini,red and yellow peppers,and eggplant make up this delicious combination. Cut vegetables into large pieces and place on grill.
Nothing hard about that, this dish is all in the presentation…after you’ve grilled the vegetables slice into thin strips, leaving the fennel in slices …
Arrange in orderly fashion, first the fennel then zucchini and eggplant and finally the colourful red and yellow peppers.
And here’s my homemade delicious dressing:
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
zest and juice of 1 lemon
freshly ground pepper
6 capers
2 anchovies
sliced black olives
sprinkle of pine nuts
Finely chop the anchovies and capers and place in mixing jar. Add balsamic vinegar,olive oil, zest and lemon juice,black pepper and mix well.Pour over grilled vegetables with a sprinkling of black olives and pine nuts.
Serve warm of cold as you like.
Enjoy!
Nice and easy entertaining, great to the eye and the taste buds. Try it for your next warm Summer evening grill.

Looks absolute divine Yvette. Definitely one to try.
Looks delightful, daring, and delicious! Such bold color and the grill marks on he veggies make it all look even more tempting. Thank you for the recipe for the dressing, too. Blessings to you, Yvette…
Looks lovely, Yvette, and I will have to give it a go next time we entertain, I think 🙂 Although, I will be leaving out the fennel …
Awesome, I could live on just this darling…so colorful…thanks for the dressing recipe…you take care and don’t work too hard 🙂 Hugs xx
Fantastic, especially when there are vegetarians in the party; this would be a meal in itself for them 😀
Heavenly! I am far from a vegetarian but Cindy is absolutely right, this is a meal on its own!
