Veggie Tian

 

Serves: 4

Ingredients
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 cup sliced green onion
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 1 medium zucchini – total weight 7 ounces
• 1 medium yellow squash – total weight 7 ounces
• 2 cups sliced cauliflower
• 1 medium tomato – total weight 7 ounces
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• ¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
• 1 cup shredded low fat Italian cheese

Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Finely dice the onion and mince the garlic. Sauté both in a skillet with olive oil until softened (about five minutes).
2. While the onion and garlic are sautéing, thinly slice the rest of the vegetables.
3. Spray the inside of an 8×8 square or round baking dish with non-stick spray. Spread the softened onion and garlic in the bottom of the dish. Place the thinly sliced vegetables in the baking dish vertically, in an alternating pattern. Sprinkle generously with salt, pepper, and thyme.
4. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil, top with cheese and bake for another 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown.
