Summer Vegetable Gratin
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009
I don’t know about you, but I am loving the vegetables available right now. The only problem is I sometimes bring home a bit more than I know quite what to do with. A couple weeks ago I bought a couple heads of that crazy, brilliantly colored cauliflower, one green and one yellowish orange. They languished in our fridge for about a week before I decided I’d better do something about them, so I made this gratin with the cauliflower and some zucchini and squash that I picked up the next week.
It turned out delicious but just a tad soggy. I’m used to making a gratin with potatoes, which tend to soak up the milk, but these vegetables didn’t need nearly so much liquid. That did make it a little better reheated though since it didn’t dry out. Definitely made an easy and delicious side with very minimal prep time. I’m sure I’ll be coming back to this one!
