Chef notes
This is a simple vegetable dish that's also ooey, gooey, cheesy and crispy. What's not to love?
Technique tip: Lightly steam the vegetables in the microwave for a few minutes first so they don't go into the oven frozen.
Swap option: Any other combination of frozen vegetables and shredded cheese.
