Saw a picture of this one in *Successful Farming* magazine's January 08 edition and simply HAD to post it for future reference. It looks and sounds so G-O-O-D! Use the veggies in any combination, as long as you end up with 3 cups (plus the carrots, etc.). The original recipe wanted you to boil the onions with the other veggies--but that just didn't appeal to me--so I added the step with sauteeing the onions. Use your favorite melty cheese, we prefer cheddar, the original recipe called for Gruyere. Don't you love having a choice? :rofl:

Step-by-step instructions

    To veggies, add nutmeg and S & P; then mash or beat until consistency you appreciate--you should have small lumps--unless you like it glue-y!

    Spoon into prepped pan; bake uncovered for 35 minutes; sprinkle with cheese, bake additional 5-10 minutes (browned & knife comes out clean).
