In Spain, like most other western European countries, vegetables are a huge part of our diet. Take this Spanish ratatouille for example, known as Tumbet Mallorquín, it is filled with veggies, yet has such an appealing presentation, that most kids want to just dip right into it. Now, whether you love to eat veggies or not, whether your a kid or an adult, with one taste, this Spanish ratatouille will surely become one of your go-to veggie dishes.
