Savory Vegetable Crumble

The promise of cooler weather may have tempted many of you to return to the kitchen and dare I say, to consider firing up the ovens. Even a diehard cook like me avoided turning on the oven during the midst of the summer blitz but now, I am ready for the aroma of a cake or spices to waft out into the kitchen. When baking at home, let’s keep things as simple as we can. Whatever comes out of the oven must constitute an entire meal or with just a simple accompaniment of salad, soup or rice. It must taste good warm or at room temperature.
Savory baking is a place to use leftovers and repurpose them into a new meal or better still, leftovers that taste better the next day. This savory crumble falls into that category. The heft of the vegetables and the lightness of the crumble topping makes it satisfying yet light. You can eat it for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
