Инструкции

  1. Partially cook squash until strips are flexible, but still hold their shape. (I put them in a 9x13 glass casserole and microwaved them, a few strips at a time, for 3-5 minutes.)
  2. Mix together broccoli, carrots, tomatoes, bell peppers,pesto, and salt.
  3. Mix together ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, and egg.
  4. Melt butter in a 2 quart saucepan over medium heat. Cook garlic in butter about 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until garlic is tender. Stir in flour. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is smooth and bubbly; remove from heat. Stir in milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute.
  5. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  6. Place 3 strips of squash in bottom of 9x13 ungreased casserole. Spread half of cheese mixture over squash. Top with 3 more strips; spread with half of vegetable mixture. Sprinkle with 1 cup mozzarella. Top with 3 more strips; spread with remaining cheese mixture. Top with 3 strips; spread with remaining vegetable mixture. Pour white sauce evenly over the top.
  7. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese.
  8. Bake uncovered 35-45 minutes, or until hot in center, and browned on top. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.
