Vegetable Parmesan

My kiddos love their veggies! This is such a fun way way to serve them, especially if you have children that DON'T love their veggies! Cover them in marinara and cheese and they will gobble them up ;) This recipe is very versatile, use whatever veggies you have!




Ingredients

  • One large zucchini, sliced on a bias
  • One large yellow squash, sliced on a bias
  • One red bell pepper, sliced in rings
  • One yellow bell pepper, sliced in rings
  • One sweet yellow onion, sliced in rings
  • One large portabello mushroom sliced
  • One small bag shredded reduced fat mozzarella cheese
  • Freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • Reduced fat feta cheese
  • 100% whole grain bread crumbs
  • One large jar of marinara sauce (I use two small jars of Rinaldi's to be healthy tomato and basil sauce)
  • Olive oil & salt ;)
  • fresh cracked pepper
  • Basil for garnish

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Grill veggies on stove top grill just until softened, about three minutes. You can also roast your veggies until softened in a 375 degree oven. cover the bottom of a 13x9 baking dish with sauce, layer veggies, cheeses and more sauce. I usually make about three layers. Sprinkle top with bread crumbs and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for about 30-35 minutes. Sprinkle basil on top when you remove from the oven, allow to cool for a few minutes, Enjoy!! As you can see in the pic below, we obviously did ;)
