Ratatouille
Ratatouille made in the slow cooker comes out surprisingly crisp-tender.

1 onion, roughly chopped
1 eggplant, sliced horizontally
2 zucchini, sliced
1 cubanelle pepper, sliced
3 tomatoes, cut into wedges
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil
2 tablespoons minced fresh Italian parsley

Place the onion, eggplant, zucchini, pepper, and tomatoes into a 4-quart slow cooker. Sprinkle with basil, parsley, salt, and pepper.
