NOTES & TIPS

(1) Eggplant. About 12 ounces weight. Cut into uniform 3/4-inch cubes so that they bake evenly. If your cubes are smaller or larger than 3/4 inches, adjust the baking time accordingly.
(2) Cheddar Cheese. I use a bag of pre-shredded cheddar cheese; either mild or sharp will work. I like the bright yellow color that cheddar brings to this casserole, but you can substitute with any kind of shredded soft cheese that melts easily, like shredded mozzarella, pepper jack, or provolone.
(3) Olives. Use your favorite type of olive; kalamata olives are acidic and sharp in taste, whereas black olives are more mild. For convenience, I buy olives that are already pitted and sliced, typically packaged in liquid in a can or jar.
(4) Assembling Casserole. I use tongs to mix ingredients directly in the casserole dish, which makes cleanup easier since there are fewer dishes. If it’s easier for you, transfer all of the ingredients to a large mixing bowl to toss together, then transfer back to the casserole dish.
(5) Serving. Serve this casserole with a side of mashed cauliflower, creamy asparagus soup, or fried zucchini coins.

Didn’t realize I didn’t have any broccoli – made it anyway – delish – didn’t miss the broccoli at all! Really love the salty olives with the tomato and eggplant. I was skeptical about adding cheese, but this turned out to be something I’ll make regularly.
