Weight Watchers Vegetable Bake Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grate the carrots, potatoes, and zucchini. Squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
- Finely chop the onions and mince the garlic.
- In a large bowl, combine the grated vegetables, chopped onions, and minced garlic.
- Add the flaxseed or chia seed mixture (or plant-based yogurt) to the vegetables.
- Add the vegetable oil, salt, pepper, and fresh herbs. Mix thoroughly.
- If using whole-grain bread, blend the slices into crumbs using a food processor. Add the breadcrumbs to the vegetable mixture and mix well.
- Grease a baking dish with a bit of oil. Spread the vegetable mixture evenly in the dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bake is firm to the touch.
- Let the bake cool slightly before slicing and serving.
