Martha Stewart’s Potato, Zucchini, and Tomato Gratin

I wanted to re-share this post because not only is this one of my most re-pinned recipes on Pinterest (check out all the great recipes I have on there) but it’s perfect for summer and I made it again this week and updated the photos.Martha Stewart's Potato, Tomato, Zucchini Gratin ©EverydayCookingAdventures2016

We are loving the summer season and produce from local farms including this zucchini and heirloom tomato. I enjoyed using my mandolin for this recipe but was very careful since I know they can be dangerous! You’ll be surprised how many slices you get from the zucchini and potato when they’re sliced so thin! It only took me about 10 minutes to prep the whole thing and then I just tossed it in the oven. Simple.

I added a little heavy cream that I had to finish off, about 4 tablespoons, so I cut the olive oil down to just in the dish’s bottom layer with the garlic. The gratin made the whole kitchen smell like thyme and I couldn’t wait to eat it! The dish came out looking artistic and colorful and I appreciated that my mandolin got a workout. It was equally satisfying to look at as to devour. Here’s my potato, zucchini, and tomato gratin: +Martha Stewart #recipe #summerrecipe #localproduce
