Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 2 medium Yellow squash
• 2 medium Carrot
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the zucchini, yellow squash, carrot, and red bell pepper thoroughly. Slice the zucchini, yellow squash, and carrot into thin rounds. Dice the red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

Cut the broccoli into even-sized small florets if not already prepared. Halve the cherry tomatoes.

Step 4

Mince the garlic cloves finely.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, yellow squash, carrot, red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and cherry tomatoes. Add the minced garlic, olive oil, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 6

Transfer the vegetable mixture into a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread the vegetables out into an even layer.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the vegetables, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 8

In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and half of the chopped parsley. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cheese layer.

Step 9

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender, the cheese is melted, and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with the remaining chopped parsley before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm as a main dish or as a flavorful side for roasted proteins or grains.
