Finally did the taste testing I've always wanted to do.
Land o Lakes wins !
it has a mild, creamy scent. It stayed in my mourh longer most likely due to higher fat content .. it tasted richer with the presence of dairy sweetness !

Hearty Vegetable Bake

INGREDIENTS:
( i used mild cheddar instead of feta . Also, i didnt steam the broccoli and cauliflower first, baking it cooks it fine )

Vegetables:

1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets

1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets

1 large red bell pepper, chopped

1 large yellow bell pepper, chopped

1 medium red onion, chopped

2 medium zucchinis, sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

5 cherry tomatoes

Sauce:

1 cup plain Greek yogurt

1 cup feta cheese, crumbled

2 large eggs, beaten

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

Toppings:

1/2 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

INSTRUCTONS:

1. Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Prepare the Vegetables:

Steam the cauliflower and broccoli florets until they are just tender, about 5-7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the red and yellow bell peppers, red onion, zucchini, cherry tomatoes and garlic. Saute until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

3. Make the Sauce:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, feta cheese, and beaten eggs. Mix well.

Add the olive oil, dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, salt, and pepper to the mixture. Stir to combine.

4. Assemble the Casserole:

In a large casserole dish, spread the steamed cauliflower and broccoli evenly.

Add the sauteed vegetables on top of the cauliflower and broccoli.

Pour the sauce over the vegetables, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

5. Add the Toppings:

In a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley.

Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.

6. Bake:

Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.

Here's a little secret about dietitians. We don't eat perfectly all the time -
In fact, the reason most of us do what we do is because We love food…ALL kinds of food!
There's this misconception that dietitians are here to cut out everything fun or "bad" from your plate, but the truth is, we believe in balance.
A well-rounded diet doesn't mean avoiding sweets or Skipping your favorite takeout night! It means nourishing your body with a variety of foods and knowing it's okay to indulge sometimes.
The last few months have included a mix of fresh
veggies, protein-packed meals, and yes, many moments where I indulged in a sweet treat. Because life's too short to feel guilty about food! Instead of aiming for perfection, aim for balance.
Let's normalize enjoying ALL foods while still fueling our bodies.

When life hands you lemons , ( Meyer lemons from your garden ) , make Lemon cake !
The 3 be**er hand mixer I bought 30 years ago as the cheap little Hamilton beach ones kept breaking on me. Love it ! It was 10.00
The cake tins were a gift from my Grandma May 27 years ago. They're like new but used very often ( Revere ware )
I love the old white mixing bowls (white milk glass )
