- 1 teaspoon minced garlic fresh
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 3/4 teaspoon salt

- 3 red bell peppers halved, cored and seeded
- 3 yellow bell peppers halved, cored and seeded
- 1 slice eggplant about 2 pounds unpeeled, cut into 1/4
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese fresh
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 9-inch spring form pan with cooking spray.
- In a large microwave bowl, add zucchini, onions and garlic. Drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil over the top. Microwave for about 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are soft. Season with a little salt and pepper.
- Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. Add peppers and eggplant to the pan. Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil over the vegetables. Toss well to coat. Spread out the vegetables over the entire pan.
- Place in the oven and roast for 30-40 minutes until soft but not browned. Remove from oven.
- Place each vegetable in a single overlapping layer. Begin with half the eggplant and next add all the red peppers. Sprinkle with half the cheese and a little salt and pepper. Add all the zucchini and onions. Next, the yellows peppers. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and a little salt and pepper. Finally add the remaining eggplant.
- Cover the top of the vegetables with a 9-inch round piece of parchment paper or waxed paper. Place another cake bottom, cake pan or plate on top and weight it down with a few heavy cans or jars (over time the weight holds this torte together).
