Ingredients

• 2 cups (peeled and diced) Butternut squash
• 1 cup (diced) Zucchini
• 1 cup (sliced into coins) Carrots
• 1 cup (florets) Cauliflower
• 1 small (thinly sliced) Yellow onion
• 1 second spritz Olive oil spray
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 1 teaspoon (chopped) Fresh thyme
• 1 cup Low-fat milk
• 1 cup Vegetable broth
• 1.5 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup (grated, low-fat or regular) Parmesan cheese
• 0.25 cup (whole wheat, if available) Panko breadcrumbs
• 1 light coat Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lightly spray a large baking dish with olive oil spray and set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine butternut squash, zucchini, carrots, cauliflower, and sliced onion. Add the minced garlic and fresh thyme, then lightly spray with olive oil spray and toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Spread the vegetable mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Step 5

In a medium saucepan over low heat, whisk together low-fat milk, vegetable broth, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Cook until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.

Step 6

Pour the thickened sauce evenly over the vegetables in the baking dish.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix together grated Parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the top of the gratin.

Step 8

Lightly coat the top of the gratin with cooking spray to help the topping crisp up during baking.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the topping is golden brown and crispy.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the gratin rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
