Prep Time- 15 mins | Cook Time- 40 mins | Makes about 4 Servings

A super simple casserole that MG asks for on a weekly basis!- He calls it Fetta Loaf HAH

Ingredients:

  • 4 oz Spinach– roughly chopped
  • 1/3 Cup Fetta
  • 2 Small Yellow Summer Squash
  • 2 Small Green Zucchini
  • 3/4 Cup Panko
  • 1/4 Cup Parmesan– grated
  • 2 Egg Whites
  • 1 Tbsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 Tbsp Onion Powder
  • 1/2 Tbsp Dry Basil
  • 1/2 tsp both Salt and Pepper
  • OPTIONAL– Pine Nuts, Corn, Mushrooms

* See notes at the bottom for ingredient alternatives and other ideas!

Instructions:

1- Gather all ingredients, set the oven to 400°F (or about 204.4°C), and spray or grease a baking dish. Grate and chop the appropriate ingredients.

2- In a large pot on the stove- sauté the Squash and Zucchini until soft throughout. Then add the rough chopped spinach and sauté while mixing until wilted. Drain the excess water.

3- While the vegetables are sauteing on the stove- In a large mixing bowl, add all the other ingredients MINUS the egg whites. Wait to add your optional ingredients until the next step.

4- Add the drained sautéed vegetables to the mixing bowl. Then add the Egg Whites and any optional ingredients and mix it up very well.

5- Place the mixture into the baking dish and bake for about 30-40 minutes, or until the top looks golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool for 5+ minutes before serving.

NOTES:

OTHER ADD INS– You can add any kind of vegetable or spice you like, you can top with mozzarella, add diced ham or turkey. I love this with toasted pine-nuts and corn! I do not really recommend using bread crumbs in place of panko- when I tried this the mixture was more mushy.
