Cheesy Veggie Casserole

This recipe is perfect to add to your holiday brunch table. Here are some dishes I recommend serving with your Cheesy Vegetable Casserole for brunch:

  • Angeled Eggs
  • Bacon Tomato Dip with Baked Tortilla Chips
  • Fruit Salad
  • Honey Peanut Bars
  • Hot Spinach and Artichoke Dip
  • Nectarine Cream Cups
  • No-Bake Chocolate Fudge Bites
  • No-Bake Peanut Butter Cookie Bites
  • No-Bake Snickerdoodle Bites
  • Pineapple Fluff Salad
  • Ranch Cheese Ball
  • Beef Summer Sausage
  • Barbecue Brisket
  • Crock Pot Barbecue Chicken Breasts
  • Turkey Ranch Pinwheels

The thing about brunches is that you’re wide open to serving just about anything – from main dish to side dish to breakfast dish to dessert. That’s what makes them fun. Putting this Cheesy Vegetable Casserole on the table – even with other breakfast type foods like muffins and sausage – really adds something special. And let’s not forget that it means your putting veggies on the table. With cheese. Veggies with cheese are always a hit!

What are your favorite dishes to add to a brunch table?

    This sound delicious, but I’m still trying to convince my husband that cheese and vegetables go together!

    Looks good. Any ideas on making it without the sour cream? I can sub almond cheese.

    That reminds me of the veg-all casserole that I’ve seen at church pot-lucks. Your version is probably so much healthier and better-tasting.

    Could you use this with frozen vegetables or would it defrost while cooking and hurt it?

    My family does not like vegetables, but maybe I can get them to eat this since it is smothered with cheese.

    Hi ~ i have been researching the paleo diet. I’ve listened to some video blogs which I learned from and signed up to receive info from.

    The thing is I’m feeling very spammed by one blogger so I was wondering if you could tell me if you have heard of these guys and if you read their blog? Thank you! Its Joel and josh? :). I love your blog.

    Merry christmas

    I don’t care for the taste of mayonnaise. Can you taste it in this or is it hidden?

      I was wondering about the mayonnaise also. We just plain don’t eat it at our house. Any ideas for substitutes?

    In my version I saute the onions first so they have begun to caramelize (for a deeper flavor), add some cooked rice or macaroni, add some cooked chicken or a can of tuna, and top with some homemade seasoned breadcrumbs or croutons. Make my own mayonnaise and use kefir cream instead of commercial sour cream. A meal in itself! YUM!

    This sounds so great, but I’m with Mary. I’d put in chicken and noodles/rice to make it a meal! :)

    Also would be fantastic to shred veggies & mix with cheese, flour & eggs and make into pancakes! Serve w/ applesauce, sour cream or ketchup.

    Yeah, this wouldn’t work for me, but only because I am the picky one…can’t have my veggies mixed together:) I am sure it is great, and I agree with some posters, chicken would probably work great added in.

    I just made this, and it tastes great! I left the mayo out completely and only had 1 cup of cheese on hand — it still turned out rich and creamy and delicious! I highly recommend this recipe for those who don’t enjoy veggies that much. .. it definitely makes them yummy!
