Who ever knew that I\u2019d have a lot in common with a rat? Well, aside from having the nickname Ty-Rat as a child, I am a lot like Remy. Remy, a rat and the lead character in the children\u2019s animated film Ratatouille<\/a> and I both have highly developed senses of taste and smell. This enables us to taste something and recreate it. It also aids us in creating delicacies in the kitchen. Remy and I both spend hours pouring our hearts out into our pots. We both have a passion for food and enjoy blessing people by tantalizing the taste buds.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So here I pay homage to Remy. Thanks for the inspiration. I needed to do something with this eggplant and this spin on a classic came out just perfect.<\/p>\n

And the kids love it too.<\/p>\n

Ratatouille<\/h2>\n

3 medium tomatoes diced, separated<\/p>\n

1 chipotle pepper in adobo<\/p>\n
