If you’re craving a dish that bursts with flavor, color, and wholesome goodness, look no further than this Tomato and Squash Casserole. Tender zucchini, vibrant yellow squash, and juicy tomatoes are elevated by a fresh, aromatic touch of oregano and the rich, nutty notes of Parmesan cheese.
Mince 2 cloves garlic and chop 2 green onions and 1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves. Combine in a bowl with 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese and set aside.
Slice 1 zucchini and 2 yellow squash and toss with ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
Prepare a shallow baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Layer ½ of the zucchini and squash in the prepared baking dish.
Slice 4 Roma tomatoes and layer half of the tomato slices over the squash.
Sprinkle with ½ of the Parmesan cheese mixture.
Repeat layers with the remaining squash, tomatoes, and cheese mixture as before.
Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with more salt and pepper if desired.
Bake at 400°F for 30 minutes. Allow to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
If you do not have access to fresh oregano, you can use 1 teaspoon dried oregano.
Vegans and those avoiding dairy can omit the Parmesan cheese or use a dairy-free alternative.
