Slow Cooker Ratatouille with Sausage image

I made up this slow cooker ratatouille recipe when I had bought too many squash! I served it in soup bowls over noodles. My kids loved the Parmesan cheese on top. It would be great with a side of garlic bread and a salad, too! I'm not sure if it's done the way the French would do it, but it sure is tasty! It's more like a very chunky tomato sauce, and it's great over ride or wide noodles. The wide noodles catch the sauce better than spaghetti would.

This was a great recipe! I used ground turkey instead of sausage and it was still very flavorful. The vegetables were cooked perfectly.
