Ratatouille, a vegetable dish from France, usually includes tomatoes, onion, eggplant, and zucchini—which are also delicious ingredients to include in a pasta sauce! Our version features all of those, plus lots of garlic, briny capers, Italian seasoning so you don't have to buy a bunch of different dried spices, and a touch of red pepper flakes for a little bit of heat (feel free to adjust depending on your spice tolerance). Also of note: Though we don't call for it in this recipe, refrigerated pasta is a great time-saver to have on hand. It keeps for several weeks in the refrigerator and cooks in about 5 minutes.
