• Quarter the zucchini then cut into 1/2-inch slices and place in a large mixing bowl (each piece of zucchini should be roughly 1/2 to 3/4 inches in size). Next, slice the eggplant into 1/4-inch rounds, then stack the rounds and cut into roughly 3/4-inch pieces. Add to the bowl with the zucchini. Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl. Drizzle the cut vegetables with the olive oil, then add the garlic, salt, pepper, 1/3 cup of the Parmesan cheese, and half of the basil and parsley. Toss gently to combine.

• To a large saute pan, add olive oil and onion. Saute over medium-high heat until onions begin to soften. Add zucchini, eggplant, garlic and green beans, and saute. Add salt at this time as it helps to release juices from the vegetables. Note: If the vegetables seem dry, add a little chicken broth. Place lid askew on pan and let the mixture cook until almost softened.
• Add the peeled tomatoes, oregano, thyme, saffron, and Zatar; toss well, replace lid, and turn heat to low and finish cooking.
• Taste for seasoning and correct to your taste. If desired, drizzle a little more olive oil over vegetables prior to serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the oven rack in the center position.
• Slice the eggplant, zucchini, and tomato: While the onions and peppers are cooking, slice the eggplant and zucchini in 1/4-inch thick round slices. You'll also want to slice the tomato into 1/4-inch thick slices, but depending on how big your tomato is, you may need to cut the tomato in half or in quarters first. All of the sliced vegetable pieces should be about the same size to make it easier to layer them in an attractive manner.
• Bake, then broil to finish: Cover with foil (it helps to grease the underside of the foil with a little olive oil so that the cheese as it melts does not stick to the foil). Bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil. Turn on the broiler and broil for 5 minutes or until nicely browned.
