Ratatouille Ingredients - 1 zucchini
- 1 yellow squash
- 2 roma tomatoes
- 1 small red onion
Sauce Ingredients Preparation When you go shopping for the vegetables, look for veggies that have a similar diameter, so that when you will slice them, they will stack together evenly. For the best fuss-free result, stir the sauce together and spread it into the bottom of the pan before layering the veggies on top. You can simply cube all the veggies, but for a pretty presentation, I like to slice them up separately. Mix together the tomato paste, vinegar, sugar, oregano, thyme and salt and 1 Tbsp of the olive oil. Coat the bottom of the round or oval baking dish with cooking spray or a little oil and put in a layer of the tomato sauce. Each of the veggies should be sliced thinly -- a mandoline works really well. In the baking dish, on top of the layer of the tomato sauce carefully place the vegetables. To make things easier, stack the veggie slices in your hand then layer them into the pan. Continue layering until the pan is full, then season with the Fustini's Parmesan blend and the 2-3 Tbsp of Fustini’s Tuscan olive oil. Bake for 30 minutes or until veggies are tender and the sauce is gently bubbling along the sides. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes, then serve. Can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, or frozen for up to 1 month. Recipe can be easily doubled for a larger pan.

Guacamole Ingredients
Preparation 1. Cook sausage until done, remove to a plate with a paper towel and drain excess grease.
2. To prepare the Guacamole: Add avocado, cilantro, lime juice, vinegar, red pepper flakes and salt to a food processor or blender. Lightly pulse until the mixture is smooth. Set aside.
3. To prepare the shrimp: In a small bowl, add shrimp, smoked paprika, ground cumin, sea salt and chipotle chili powder. Toss the shrimp to coat in the seasoning blend.
4. Heat a large skillet to medium high heat. Add olive oil to the pan and then place the shrimp. Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side.
5. Assemble the bites. Top each chip with a spoonful of sausage, a dollop of guacamole, one shrimp and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve Submitted by Fustini's Guest Chef Cathy Magee
