The Vegetable Egg Bake is a one-dish meal that is sure to captivate you with its perfect blend of flavours and textures.

Lusciously creamy, with the pleasant crunch of vegetables, this dish is truly a worthy indulgence. An assortment of veggies is sautéed in butter, placed on a bed of cheese, coated with a milky egg mixture, topped with more cheese and baked to perfection.

Now that you can imagine how this would be, we are sure you can’t wait any longer to try it out. Depending on your taste, you can increase the amount of green chillies and pepper to make it more spicy.
