Sweet Potato and Zucchini Au Gratin image

This is a twist on a recipe I found here in Recipezaar as I added the zucchini for more vegetables as I'm always trying to get as many vegetables as possible in a dish and I also added the cheese. I made a few other modifications as well. The Manchego cheese gives it some typical Spanish flavor, which I love to do to typical American dishes.

I found that the sweet potatoes and zucchini didn't cook evenly, so I had to adjust the cooking time.

This dish was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference.

I'm not usually a fan of au gratin dishes, but this one was really good. The sweetness of the sweet potatoes balanced out the savory flavor of the cheese.

The cheese topping was perfectly golden brown and bubbly, and the sweet potatoes and zucchini were cooked to perfection.
