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:

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!

This sound delicious, but I’m still trying to convince my husband that cheese and vegetables go together!
Yummy! I love these kinds of casseroles….comfort food!
Looks good. Any ideas on making it without the sour cream? I can sub almond cheese.
Coconut milk yogurt maybe?
Looks nummy!
I can’t wait to try this one too! Thanks
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?
This looks good! I have someone in the house who doesn’t like vegetables very much so maybe this will win him over
Ooh that sounds yummy! I would add rice to make it a meal! Although it is perfect as is for brunch!
This looks yummy!!! Can’t wait to try it. THANKS!!!!!!
I bet my kids would go for this. I could use their favorite veggies-they are all about the cheese!
I will be trying this recipe. It looks so yummy!!!
My family does not like vegetables, but maybe I can get them to eat this since it is smothered with cheese.
Yummy!
Yummy!
I need more ideas with vegetables. This is a good one!
I would imagine frozen veggies should work just fine!
My family would love this Laura! Perfect timing.
Thanks for the Free Coconut Oil Post too. I was able to take advantage of it!
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
Weird, no I haven’t heard of them. Hope you can get that resolved. :)
I don’t care for the taste of mayonnaise. Can you taste it in this or is it hidden?
Thanks
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! :)
Looks good. I will have to try it.
This would be a great use of the veges coming out of my garden.
Looks good…Going to bring this to a family get-together tomorrow.
Sounds good!
Also would be fantastic to shred veggies & mix with cheese, flour & eggs and make into pancakes! Serve w/ applesauce, sour cream or ketchup.
This looks like a great way to dress up plain vegetables. Will pin for later!
Mmmm…I’ll definitely have to try this! Looks delicious!
I was wondering about the mayonnaise also. We just plain don’t eat it at our house. Any ideas for substitutes?
Thanks!
I am going to try this one
Yummy! I’ll have to try this!
My mother in law makes something similar to this topped with ritz crackers. I have been trying to find a healthier version. I think this will do nicely. Thank you!
This looks great. Think I’ll try it w/ chicken.
Looks and sounds delicious!
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.
Can’t go wrong with cheese, mayo, sour cream and veggies all in one dish!
I was thinking the same thing! Here’s to hoping we can when them over to the vegetable side!
This is perfect for an event we have coming up…..yum!
It looks really yummy! Now I wonder if fresh vegetables are okay for it. Any suggestions?
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!
