9. Dice peppers, add to pan and cook a few minutes

18. It is very filling, but if you feel you must have meat, a honey mustard chicken goes great with it

Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until they are wilted and lightly. The title refers to the French dish ratatouille, which is served at.
