-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 red bell pepper -- cored, seeded, cut into thin strips, then into tiny dice
1 green bell pepper -- cored, seeded, cut into thin strips, then into tiny dice
1 yellow bell pepper -- cored, seeded, cut into thin strips, then into tiny dice
1 orange bell peppers -- cored, seeded, cut into thin strips, then into tiny dice
1/2 small eggplant -- the skin cut into strips like the peppers, then into tiny dice
1 pinch crushed dried marjoram
1 pinch crushed dried thyme
1 pinch crushed dried rosemary
1/2 cup V-8® vegetable juice
salt and freshly ground pepper

Combine all the ingredients in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer until vegetables are just barely tender, about 5 to 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.

Makes about 4 cups (16 one-quarter cup servings).

Made from 4 different-colored sweet bell peppers and eggplant, all cut into tiny dice the size of pieces of old-fashioned confetti, this festive relish is reminiscent of the flavors of ratatouille.

Serve over broiled or grilled [favorite] or with roasted [favorite]. Stir a couple of spoonfuls into leftover soups to give then new life. Also goes well with ... stews.
