Woot–I’m going to try a variation of this with the three zukes I have at home I’ve been daydreaming about a healthy veggie al gratin for a couple of weeks now, and this will most likely satisfy me. =)
I bet a handful of chopped parsley would’ve been good sprinkled on top of this, too.
Yes, this is a good choice! Very good for leftovers and such. I agree with the parsley.
How were you taught to pronounce au gratin? “Grah-tin” or “gruh-tan”?
My pronunciation depends on who I’m talking to. Is that stuck up? When I talk to cheffy folks, I use the latter, and with non-cheffy folks, the former.
