How to Make Asian Vegetable Casserole Veggie Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Sauté 2 cloves minced garlic and 1/2 cup chopped onion until softened and lightly browned (about 5 minutes).
  4. Add 1 cup chopped carrots, 1 cup chopped zucchini, and 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper. Sauté for another 3-5 minutes until slightly softened.
  5. Stir in 1 cup sliced mushrooms and 2 cups shredded red cabbage. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 tablespoon rice vinegar. Stir to combine and cover the skillet to steam the cabbage for 5-7 minutes, or until softened.
  7. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  8. Once the cabbage is tender, add the vegetable mixture to the egg mixture and stir gently to combine. Be careful not to overmix.
  9. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  10. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the casserole is lightly golden brown.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
