This is another one of those recipes where anything goes. Here is what I did:
Start with:
2 small eggplants
3 peppers: 1 green, 1 red, 1 purple
1 yellow squash
1 clove of garlic, unpeeled
Pierce the eggplants and squash. Roast at about 400 for 30 minutes or so, turning occasionally. Remove eggplants and peppers from oven and place in a ziplock or a bowl sealed with plastic wrap to steam. Remove garlic from oven. Continue roasting squash.
Peel garlic and smash with salt until a paste forms. Place in serving bowl. Peel eggplants and peppers. Chop and place in serving bowl. Remove squash from oven, chop, and add to serving bowl. Add about 1/2 cup of diced tomatoes (you can roast and peel your own: follow the instructions for the peppers or just used canned), a couple of chopped pepperoncini peppers, some capers, and then drizzle with red wine vinegar and olive oil. Add a little salt, pepper, oregano, parsley and anything else that sounds good. Mix it all up.
You can serve this hot or cold. You can add feta, but I don't think it is necessary. It is a wonderful dip with a variety of crackers, chips, and breads.
