Baked Zucchini, Carrot, and Potato Casserole

A fuss-free, meatless dish that is savory, tender, and incredibly easy to prep.

  • Prep time: 15 minutes

  • Bake time: 40–50 minutes

  • Yields: 4–6 servings

Ingredients

  • Vegetables: 12 oz (total) of carrots, potatoes, and zucchini

  • Onions: 5.5 oz, finely chopped

  • Protein: 3 eggs

  • Aromatics: 2-3 cloves of garlic, minced

  • Oil: 2 tbsp vegetable oil

  • Seasoning: 1 tsp salt, plus pepper to taste

  • Herbs: Fresh herbs (like parsley or dill) at your discretion

  • Breading: 3 tbsp ready-made breadcrumbs or 2 slices of crumbled bran bread

Instructions

1. Prepare the Vegetables

  • Grate the carrots, potatoes, and zucchini using a box grater.

  • Chef’s Tip: After grating the zucchini and potatoes, squeeze out the excess moisture with your hands or a kitchen towel to prevent the casserole from becoming soggy.

  • Finely chop the onions and mince the garlic.

2. Create the Mixture

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the 3 eggs with the vegetable oil, salt, and pepper.

  • Stir in the grated vegetables, chopped onions, minced garlic, and your choice of fresh herbs.

  • Mix in the breadcrumbs (or crumbled bran bread) to help bind the ingredients together.

3. Assemble and Bake

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).

  • Grease a glass baking dish and pour the vegetable mixture into it, smoothing the top with a spatula.

  • Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the center is set and the top has turned a beautiful golden brown.

4. Serve

  • Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes after taking it out of the oven to allow the juices to redistribute.

  • Slice into squares and serve warm.
