Summer Vegetable Casserole in the Slow Cooker image

When your garden is overflowing with zucchini, peppers, and tomatoes, this is the dish to make. It's a versatile casserole that can be easily adapted to your taste and available ingredients. It's a great accompaniment for grilled meats, or turn it into a one-dish meal by adding diced chicken, turkey, or firm tofu. Using a slow cooker keeps the kitchen cool.
