Notes

Use a mix of your favorite vegetables for different flavors and textures. You can add more cheese if you want it extra cheesy. Make sure to coat the vegetables well in the cheese mixture for the best flavor. If you have leftovers, let the dish cool, then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days. To reheat, warm it in the oven or microwave until heated through.
