Directions
Veggie-Loaded Side Dish Bake, This is one of my favourite dishes Yes, it does take time, mainly in preparing and sauteing the vegetables Believe me, it is worth it! This recipe serves 9 people, and can easily be made a day ahead I do the prep at my leisure, quite a relaxing task! The result should be a tasty, tangy bake which needs no more than baked chicken pieces and maybe a large bowl of mixed lettuce leaves with dressing This is sooo healthy : 5 veggies, plus other healthy ingredients! Do season it well The flavour improves on standing: I make the whole large dish for the 2 of us, then divide it and keep the 2nd part, covered, in the fridge for the next day Worth every minute you spend on it, and kids should like it too! DO NOT be put off by the list of ingredients : they are all pretty ordinary, and it’s all easily assembled , Omitted the asparagus, and added extra zucchini, but otherwise made as written Very nicely spiced! And very pretty – thanks for sharing
