Spicy Squash and Zucchini Tian

Start with a layer of Rotel Cilantro Lime, tomato sauce and spiced with salt and cilantro.
Then vertically layer with sliced zucchini, squash and onion.
Scatter some minced, fresh Jalapeno across the top.
Top with more Rotel, tomato sauce, spices and several pats of butter.
Bake at 375° till veggies are hot and just tender.

This can easily be done as an Italian style dish with plenty of olive oil, fresh basil, oregano and thyme.

A bottom layer of rice and meat turns this into a one dish, casserole meal.

The Italian version.
Lots of garlic, fresh oregano and olive oil along with a zesty tomato sauce loaded with spices.

I'm really liking the look of that Italian version John, be trying it out real soon. Yesterday we moved my 97 year old FIL into his new apartment. No more "Assisted Living" place, the food there turned to garbage and then Jan found mouse poop in his kitchen drawer. I'll be cooking up all his meals in another three weeks once I'm healed up enough from shoulder replacement surgery. Old guy loves my cooking and this will save us over $2K a month out of pocket, less money, better chow! RAY

I was just going to say add the meat to the Rotel, bolognese sauce.
