Vegetable Alfredo Bake

This vegetable alfredo bake is delicious and nutritious with the loads of vegetables that go into this! It’s perfect for a meatless meal or as a side dish. This dish is also fairly low carb if you are looking for that and even fits perfectly into a keto diet.

This is a perfect way to use up any leftover or extra vegetables you may have on hand. I have listed the vegetables I use in this recipe but you can always sub out the ones I have listed for ones you like or have on hand. This recipe will work with almost all vegetables. Making it a great way to use up extra vegetables or sneak a few more into your diet.

I do a vegetable subscription box weekly and during the summers I grow a garden, so I always have tons of vegetables on hand. Sometimes I get overwhelmed with just how to use them all up. This dish is perfect for that.

This recipe uses either jarred or homemade alfredo sauce. I love homemade alfredo because it’s so delicious, however, the jarred version is also nice to keep on hand for a really quick and easy meal. So use whatever one works best for you! This recipe takes about 1 hour to make but 45 minutes of that is hands off baking time. So this meal takes about 15 minutes of prep and hands on cook time and work then it’s easy sailing.

I have you sauté the vegetables before adding them to the pan to bake because I like the flavor concentration that comes from sautéing and seasoning your vegetables before you bake them. It also helps the leafy greens wilt so they fit into your pan a little better before baking. You can skip this stage if you don’t want to sauté them and just add all of the ingredients to a pan before mixing and baking. It will still taste delicious that way too.
