Mallorca Style Vegetable Bake



      This recipe from Hunt's is a good way to use some of the fresh vegetables from your summer garden.  You do need to roast them in a hot oven, in my 12 inch dutch oven they cooked for a total of 50 minutes with 12 coals in a ring around the bottom and 28-30 on the lid.  If you can't use fresh herbs use the dry ones but cut the the amounts in half.  Healthy, colorful and a good recipe if you're cooking in the back country, none of the ingredients requires refrigeration.
