With every spoonful of this vegetable bake, I drift back to a simpler time in my mom's garden. We weren't allowed in it unless she was with us, filling her basket with ripe tomatoes, pea pods, carrots, green onions and herbs. -Paula Marchesi, Lenhartsville, Pennsylvania

I'm not usually a fan of vegetable bakes, but this one is an exception. The combination of vegetables, cheese, and herbs is just perfect. I especially love the addition of the zucchini and yellow squash. They add a nice sweetness to the dish.
