1 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt & pepper, to taste
1/2 small eggplant
1 bell pepper
1 small yellow squash
1 rib celery
1 medium potato
1 carrot
1/2 cup button mushrooms
Preparation
Step 1
Heat 2-4 tbsp of olive oil in a medium saucepan on medium-low heat and add onion, garlic, diced tomatoes, fresh parsley and salt & pepper. Mix together and simmer on low heat for 15 minutes or until the onions are translucent and some of the tomato juice has reduced.
Step 2
While the tomato-parsley mixture simmers, prepare the vegetables by washing and cutting into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Place all vegetables in a large mixing bowl. Season with salt & pepper and a generous pour of olive oil.
Step 3
Add the tomato-parsley mixture and gently mix everything together. Transfer to a 9x9 baking dish.
Step 4
Bake at 400 F for 90 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Add 2-4 tbsp olive oil while baking if vegetables look dry.
