Potato, Zucchini, Goat Cheese and Cheddar Gratin

POTATO------I love potatoes.   To me, potato is the ultimate comfort food.  Bake it, boil it, fry it, grill it, all are wonderful.  I had to make this recipe and of course, I love the dish.  Oh yes, I love goat cheese too.

Potato, Zucchini, Goat Cheese and Cheddar Gratin

Ingredients:

1 medium zucchini, sliced thin

4 medium potatoes, sliced thin

1 red onion, sliced thin

1 tablespoon olive oil

4 ounces plain goat cheese
2/3 cup white cheddar cheese
1/2 cup Italian Dressing

Method:

Preheat oven to 400°F.



Pour olive oil in a casserole dish and spread to cover bottom.


Layer potato, zucchini, red onion, goat cheese. Pour half of the dressing over this.

Repeat layer.

I had enough for a third layer of potatoes so put on another layer and cover that with Cheddar.

Bake for 30 minutes. 

Cover and bake for another 15-20 minutes.

    I love potatoes too and they are such comfort food, but I find I need to eat lower in carbs . I could try this recipe using cauliflower instead of the potato. Most of the time it works just as well .It looks really delicious.

    Great idea to up the flavor factor and lower the cals by using Zucchini in your dish. YUM. Thanks for sharing at #theWeekendSocial. Pinned. See you Thursday, I hope! ;) http://www.theKitchenChopper.com

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi...

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I ...
