Vegetable Cheese Bake

Yum

Have a hard time getting your family to eat their vegetables? Well, no longer! This vegetable cheese bake sprinkled with parmesan and mozzarella makes one delicious side dish you'll absolutely love making time and time again.

Ingredients:

- 2 Roma tomatoes, sliced
- 2 small yellow squash, sliced 
- 2 small potatoes, sliced
- 1 small orange pepper, sliced in thin strips (I used 1/2 of an orange pepper)
- 1 carrot, thinly sliced (or a bag of carrot chips)
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- 2 cloves of garlic, diced
- 3 Tbs olive oil
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1/2 tsp. fresh pepper
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup reduced-fat shredded mozzarella cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In an 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish, in single file, line the vegetables in three rows, alternating vegetables (leaving out the onions and garlic). Lay the sliced orange peppers along the sides of the baking dish. Toss diced onions and garlic on top of the vegetables, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and parmesan. Bake, covered, for one hour, or until potatoes and carrots can easily be pierced with a fork. Remove from oven, remove foil, and sprinkle with mozzarella. Recover with foil and let set until mozzarella melts into the vegetables. Enjoy! If you'd like a printer-friendly version of this recipe, Click Here.
