Baked vegetables in casserole is a delicious combination of seasonal vegetables, whole wheat sauce with Italian herbs, topped with cheese. This dish is delicious as well as appetizing. Slightly charred cheese on top is making me drool all over it. The whole vegetable casserole preparation is in 1 tablespoon butter. Cheese is also used in limited quantity. You can also drop using cheese altogether but a little cheese in the vegetable casserole will still taste yummy and nice.
