Vegetable Pie (aka Vegetable Tian)

image showing the steps of how the Vegetable Pie is made
This past weekend, I was invited to have a lovely dinner with some amazing friends. When I asked the hostesses what I could bring, she asked for a vegetable side dish.

A while back, I bookmarked a vegetable tian recipe from For The Love of Cooking. I added my own flair and came up with this winner. What amazing flavors all packed in one pie! The ladies loved it and I will be making this one again very soon.

I was very excited that my summer garden will have almost all of the items need to whip this up. How fun it is that!

Vegetable Pie (aka Vegetable Tian)

  1. Thinly slice potatoes, plum tomatoes, yellow squash, and zucchini. Set aside. To give the tomatoes a little extra kick, I placed the thin slices on a paper towel to absorb some liquid and sprinkled 1 tsp or the multipurpose seasoning.
  2. Saute your chopped onions and minced garlic in 1 tbsp of butter until onions are soft (about 5 minutes).
  3. Spray a pie pan with non-stick spray and layer onions on the bottom of the pan. If you do not have a pie pan, an 8×8 pan will also work.
  4. Create a spiral layer (or rows if you are using a square dish) of potato, zucchini, squash, potato, tomato, potato, zucchini, squash, potato, tomato, potato, etc…
  5. Drizzle with the 2 tbsp of olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1 tsp of seasoning and salt. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 400 degrees, covered for 30 minutes.
  6. Remove from oven and sprinkle with your Italian cheese. Bake uncovered for an additional 15-20 minutes.

  3. This is an amazing dish and so healthy looking. It is being featured at My Meatless Mondays.

    1. Yay! It really is a yummy one!

  4. This was such a fabulous recipe! I made it tonight for dinner as the main course, since I am vegetarian. I did make a few adjustments. Like I added more garlic, and used a shallot instead of an onion, I also put a whole lemons worth of zest on the Tian after it was assembled. That really livened it up and tasted so fresh! The only other big change, was I used fresh mozzarella cheese, boy did that make it out of this world delicious!!!

    Thank you so much for this unbelievably tasty recipe!!! I will definitely be making it MANY MANY MANY more times!
