Cheddar Cracker Crusted Veggie Bake

(2)
""I’ve got a NEW tasty dish #ad in partnership with @annieshomegrown & @thefeedfeed that I know you’re gonna love! I’ve jazzed up a cheesy potato dish and packed it with organic veggies like broccoli, bell peppers, and tri-colored carrots, and topped it with Annie’s Organic Cheddar Squares for a cheesy added crunch! Don’t worry, the recipe doesn’t use the whole box of crackers, so there’s plenty for snacking on while your taters bake up. They’re baked with real cheese and have no artificial flavors, no synthetic colors, and no synthetic preservatives, and of course they’re USDA certified organic. You can find deals on Annie's products like Bunny Crackers & Grahams 6.75-7.5oz 2/$5 from 8/19- 9/1 at your local coop too! I picked these crackers up, along with ALL of the recipe ingredients @lakewindsfoodcoop which I am so happy is so close to my new house! Their shelves are almost always all organic, and they work closely with local farmers which I love. Want to see where your closest local co-op is? Head to the link in my bio, tap this picture, and enter your zip code. Find this cheesy side dish (or tasty vegetarian main) recipe on the blog under Recipes, or you’ll find it here: (insert ff link) Team cheesy crispy casserole edges, who’s with me?!"

For the Topping

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a square 9×9 baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.

  • Step 2

    In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients except the topping ingredients. Using a wooden spoon, stir until everything is well combined. Pour into prepared baking pan and spread out evenly. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes at 350 degrees.

  • Step 3

    Remove from oven, turn oven on the broil setting. Sprinkle the top of the veggie bake with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese and crushed Annie's Cheddar Squares. Place under the broiler for about 2 minutes, or just until the crackers brown slightly. Watch very closely to avoid burning.

  • Step 4

    Serve alongside your favorite protein, or enjoy as a vegetarian main.
