Cheesy Ratatouille Quinoa Casserole is an easy, flavorful ratatouille casserole with hearty quinoa and mozzarella cheese. It's a satisfying gluten free, vegetarian meal!
One cup quinoarinsed, cooked according to package instructions and drained well
1 1/2cupsgrated mozzarella cheesedivided
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13" baking dish with cooking spray.
Combine the ratatouille with the desired amount of quinoa. I suggest using 2-2 1/2 cups of quinoa if you'd like your casserole to be a bit "saucier". Add the remaining quinoa if you'd your casserole less saucy. Stir in 3/4 cup of the cheese and pour into the prepared baking dish.
Top with the remaining cheese and bake for about 30 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown. Remove from heat and cool for about 10 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Cook time for the ratatouille is not included as you can choose whether to make it on the stove top or try my Instant Pot Ratatouille.
The ratatouille may be made in advance and even frozen until ready to use. Simply thaw, toss with quinoa and cheese and bake!
The casserole may be assembled up to a day in advance. Bring to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking as a cold casserole will take longer to bake.
