Vegetable casserole can be a simple dish for warm summer days when heavy food doesn't sound good. It can be made with a variety of vegetables and never end up the same twice. Gluten free drop biscuits can be added to make a vegetable pot pie. Simpler mixtures will yield a comforting, home cooked flavor and feel. More complex mixtures add a little spice to an evening, without the need for actual spices. This is a mostly vegetarian dish. It is okay to add meat leftovers such as ham, burger, turkey, or chicken. Or use this as a side dish.
