Veggie Heaven

Serves 8+

2 TBSP olive oil
2 Yellow onion
4 garlic
4 zucchini
4 yellow squash
3 sweet potato (I use sweet because regular potatoes are way too starchy, up to you)
4 tomato
1 1/2 tsp thyme
1 lb lean beef cooked (optional)
salt and pepper
Italian cheese

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Finely dice the onion and mince the garlic. Saute both in a skillet with olive oil until softened (about five minutes).

While the onion and garlic are sauteing, thinly slice the rest of the vegetables.

Spray the inside of a baking dish with non-stick spray. Layer beef and softened onion and garlic in the bottom of the dish. Place the thinly sliced vegetables in the baking dish vertically, in an alternating pattern. Sprinkle generously with salt, pepper, and thyme.

Cover the dish with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Remove the foil, top with cheese and bake for another 15 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown.
