Crock Pot Ratatouille

At this time of year, we have had zucchini in so many ways.  And the squash and the eggplant are still coming in strong.  I have a favorite easy way to use up this bounty that can easily be adjusted to taste and whatever veggies are on hand.  The first night we had this over pasta with some browned Italian sausage.  I eat it a lot for lunch with a little feta on top.  And I've used it as a pizza sauce and toppings.  Last weekend I put some on an open faced roll and melted a little cheese on top.  YUM!  I love this ratatouille!
