A simple tasty weeknight dinner. Took this casserole for a dinner party and it was a hit!! What I like about this recipe is that this can be baked ahead and reheated. You can add or sub other veggies (for the corn) to the sauté- diced zucchini, spinach, mushrooms etc.

ReplyDeleteI love all of the veggies in this casserole! And the cheese!
ReplyDeleteIt looks wonderful! I am the sole casserole person in the house but I know I could get my family to eat it as a side with stew or chili.
ReplyDeleteI make something similar and it's alway such a hit! I love that you added bell peppers too - I haven't tried that and clearly must!
ReplyDeleteThat looks very tasty, Sneha! I can see why everyone at the dinner party loved it.
