Preparation
01Preheat the oven to 375 F.
02Very thinly slice the eggplant, zucchini, and yellow squash using a mandoline or knife. Use a knife to slice the tomatoes and mozzarella.
03On a baking sheet or tray, season all the sliced vegetables with dry basil, dry oregano, dry parsley, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Set aside while making the sauce.
04Add some oil to a pan. Once hot, add in your red onion, serrano and garlic paste. Cook for a minute and add in your sauce. Pour sauce into baking tray.
05Add the zucchini, yellow squash, eggplant, tomatoes, and mozzarella in alternating slices into a baking pan. Sprinkle half of the parmesan cheese on top. Cover the tray with foil and bake for about 30 minutes.
06To make the garlic bread, in a bowl, mix the butter, garlic cloves, oregano, and garlic powder. Evenly spread the garlic butter onto each piece of bread and set aside.
07After 30 minutes, remove the foil off of the ratatouille pan. Bake for another 10 minutes or until all of the vegetables are soft.
08During those 10 minutes, put the garlic bread into the oven.
09To assemble the sub, add as much ratatouille as you desire onto one side of your garlic bread. Garnish with extra parmesan cheese, green onion, and fresh parsley.
10Close the hot sub, cut in half, and enjoy!
